Subject: bad error message - Not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git
Date: Thu, 3 Oct 2019 15:37:14 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CA+KyZp6MKqL0mz-iCHGEcvZi09P+GmS7QEogX10-2OJ5nMPDRA@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

when running git commands outside of a git repo, we often see:

fatal: Not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git

such a lame message lol.
can we get an absolute path on this message in future git versions, eg:

Not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): /home/ubuntu/xyz/.git
