git-gui: fix inability to quit after closing another instance

Open orgads opened this issue 2 years ago • 3 comments

If you open 2 git gui instances in the same directory, then close one of them and try to close the other, an error message pops up, saying: 'error renaming ".git/GITGUI_BCK": no such file or directory', and it is no longer possible to close the window ever.

Fix by catching this error, and proceeding even if the file no longer exists.

@orgads Sorry, I no longer maintain this. https://github.com/j6t/git-gui is the fork that should be actively maintained.

Again, sorry for not replying earlier.
