#   tcar_checkRepoDirSource.sh -- This function standardizes the path

#   construction of directories inside the working copy, using

#   absolute paths. This function transforms relative paths passed as

#   non-option arguments to tcar.sh script command-line into

#   absolute paths inside the working copy, based on whether you are

#   using Subversion or Git as version control system. Further

#   verifications, (e.g., whether they really exist as directories

#   inside the working copy or not) should be realized outside this

#   function.

#

#   Use this function whenever you want to be sure non-option

#   arguments passed to tcar.sh script command-line do always

#   point to directories inside the working copy.  Transforming

#   relative paths into absolute paths, before processing them, is

#   very useful when you need to execute the tcar.sh script as

#   command (e.g., `tcar') anywhere on your workstation.

    # Remove any dot from arguments passed to tcar.sh script.

    # This way it is possible to use a single dot to reflect the

    # current location from which tcar.sh was executed. Notice

    # that using a dot as argument is optional (e.g.: when you pass no

    # argument to tcar command-line, the current location is

    # used as default location). However, it might be useful to use a

    # dot as argument when you want to include the current location in

    # a list of arguments to process. Don't forget that dot slash can

    # be used to refer locations relatively.

    LOCATION=$(echo "${LOCATION}" | sed -r "s,^\.(/([[:alnum:]_/.-]+)?)?$,$(pwd)\1,g")

    # Remove the path to repository's base directory from location in

    # order to avoid path duplications here.

    LOCATION=$(echo "${LOCATION}" | sed "s,${TCAR_BASEDIR}/,,g")

    # When we use Git as version control system, there isn't a need of

    # using the `trunk', `branches', `tags' convention we were using

    # for Subversion.  The working copy begins directly with the

    # content of our repository (e.g., Documentation, Scripts,

    # Identity and Locales).

    #

    # When we use Subversion as version control system, we follow the

    # `trunk', `branches', `tags' convention to organize files inside

    # the repository and need to redefine the source path in order to

    # build the repository absolute path from the repository top level

    # on.  As convention, when you prepare your working copy through

    # tcar.sh script, the absolute path to the `trunk/'

    # directory is used as working copy. This is, path arguments

    # provided to tcar.sh script will be interpreted from trunk/

    # directory level on. For example, the following command should

    # work correctly in both Subversion and Git repositories:

    #

    #   tcar render Documentation/Manuals/Docbook/Tcar-ug

    #

    # There isn't a need of verifying the paths built here.  This is

    # something we do later, using the tcar_checkFiles function. We

    # don't do the file verification here to avoid malformed error

    # messages when we reassign variable values using this function as

    # reference (e.g., in order to prevent error messages from being

    # stored inside variables.).

    LOCATION=${TCAR_BASEDIR}/${LOCATION}

    # Remove trailing slashes passed as argument. The single slash

    # form is used to refer the repository's root directory. The

    # single slash form passed as argument of tcar.sh script is

    # useful to execute commands over the

    # entire repository tree.

    echo "${LOCATION}" | sed -r -e 's,/+,/,g' -e 's,/+$,,g'
