[Bootstrap] Creates .git directory

[marekcirkos]

Version: 2.0.0-beta.30

Every time I call learn bootstrap it creates .git directory. Is this expected behaviour? It is a bit frustrating when working with other repos.

Is it possible to disable git integration completely? --skip-git does not help.

Best regards

Hi @marekcirkos good question! It seems like for bootstrap it shouldn't be necessary.

Interested in tracking down what's causing it? 😁

[marekcirkos]

I already did :).
You initialise it Repository constructor

lerna/src/Repository.js

Line 11 in d707386

GitUtilities.init();

It gets allocated in BaseCommand for every single command https://github.com/lerna/lerna/blob/master/src/Command.js#L18

Oh! Nice find!

Well... maybe that could be more targeted. What commands actually need to initialize it? 🤔

[marekcirkos]

Lol, I guess I edited my comment during your post :)

Any update here? I'm trying to run lerna from Dockerfile, running into this which would require adding unnecessary git dep to docker.

@natew I'm looking into this right now. BTW: currently (rc.4) errors out if you do not have git initialized and does not create a repo internally.

This is fixed by #803
