Merge pull request #3791: Various fixes around safe.directory
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
The first three commits are rebased versions of those in gitgitgadget#1215. These allow the following:

1. Fix `git config --global foo.bar <path>` from allowing the `<path>`. As a bonus, users with a config value starting with `/` will not get a warning about "old-style" paths needing a "`%(prefix)/`".

2. When in WSL, the path starts with `/` so it needs to be interpolated properly. Update the warning to include `%(prefix)/` to get the right value for WSL users. (This is specifically for using Git for Windows from Git Bash, but in a WSL directory.)

3. When using WSL, the ownership check fails and reports an error message. This is noisy, and happens even if the user has marked the path with `safe.directory`. Remove that error message.
