filepath’s makeRelative does not work for relative directories

[mail@…]

[I hope I’m filing this at the right place]

Hi,

I’d expect

makeRelative "some/path" "some/path/a/b/c" == "a/b/c"

Instead, I get the second path back. Is that intentional?

Thanks

hmm, looking at it, makeRelative has no generalised QuickCheck? properties, and all the specific instances are on absolute paths. I'll try and come up with a patch for this that does the right thing in this situation.

Neil's fixed this; the fix is included in both 6.6.1 and the HEAD.
