Question

I want to develop custom git command using tcl. The choice of programming language was done considering ease of learning (as I thought) and availability (git ships with tcl).

I want to create folder using tcl script. Normally I’m calling mkdir <name> in the script and it works fine, but in case if it git command it is saying: invalid command name "mkdir".

Am I missing some references to be added to my script to make system commands available for me?

The strange thing, that exec sh is working. But I don’t want to wrap mkdir into sh… Or is this the only way in my case?

Try using file mkdir dir ?dir ...?.
