How to use with yadm?

[oblitzitate]

I tried :DiffviewOpen -C~/.local/share/yadm/repo.git but got the following error:

Error executing Lua callback: ...iffview.nvim/lua/diffview/scene/views/diff/diff_view.lua:131: attempt to concatenate field 'dir' (a nil value)

I'm thinking I need to assign the work-tree but don't know if I can do that.

It isn't supposed to throw an error either way, so thanks for reporting. That part should be fixed now.

You're maybe correct in that you have to specify the working tree path. That is, only if YADM doesn't configure a default working tree path. What you definitely must specify for bare git repos is the path to the git directory. Git is not able to figure this out from the path alone for bare repos.

Define the GIT_DIR environment variable such that it points to the repo.git directory.

Closing as a duplicate of #237.
