+
+/*
+ * An API to let code "subscribe" to changes to the current working directory.
+ * The general idea is that some code asks to be notified when the working
+ * directory changes, and other code that calls chdir uses a special wrapper
+ * that notifies everyone.
+ */
+
+/*
+ * Callers who need to know about changes can do:
+ *
+ *   void foo(const char *old_path, const char *new_path, void *data)
+ *   {
+ *	warning("switched from %s to %s!", old_path, new_path);
+ *   }
+ *   ...
+ *   chdir_notify_register("description", foo, data);
+ *
+ * In practice most callers will want to move a relative path to the new root;
+ * they can use the reparent_relative_path() helper for that. If that's all
+ * you're doing, you can also use the convenience function:
+ *
+ *   chdir_notify_reparent("description", &my_path);
+ *
+ * Whenever a chdir event occurs, that will update my_path (if it's relative)
+ * to adjust for the new cwd by freeing any existing string and allocating a
+ * new one.
+ *
+ * Registered functions are called in the order in which they were added. Note
+ * that there's currently no way to remove a function, so make sure that the
+ * data parameter remains valid for the rest of the program.
+ *
+ * The "name" argument is used only for printing trace output from
+ * $GIT_TRACE_SETUP. It may be NULL, but if non-NULL should point to
+ * storage which lasts as long as the registration is active.
