gau-2.1.2 binary wont run if outside of a github repository #103

Closed TH3-F001 closed 11 months ago

When following the installation instructions in the readme; moving the binary to a location external to the github repository results in the following error:

fatal: not a git repository (or any parent up to mount point /)
Stopping at filesystem boundary (GIT_DISCOVERY_ACROSS_FILESYSTEM not set).

Moving the binary back to the original git folder however works fine.

...Maybe I've just never gone deep enough with git, or this is a go thing, or im just more of a noob than I thought, but I've never seen this kind of error before.

you're probably running gau in a folder that has a subdirectory called "gau"
