MacVim git-vim compatibility issues

[nathanieles]

All of the git commands seem to work well for me if I open up the file through the terminal,
but if I open up the file through MacVim and try to run the same commands I run into issues.
It would tell me that the file is "Not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git",
even though the directory in which the file is in has a .git file.

Anyone else having this issue?

Same here... any fix?

Hi,
Just found a fix for it.

The Issue was that MacVim was not set to auto change the working directory to the same as the file that is currently on the buffer.

Adding the following to the .vimrc fixes it:
set autochdir

:)
