Hi,
I have moved to the bug mailing list from the help mailing list,
since the contents of talk exceeded the range of help mailing list.

It is a reason for implementation.
Now the algorithm is as follows.
At first, the system recognizes the project directory
by GTAGS file kr GTAGSROOT environment variable
Next, the system loads one of the following configuration files.
(1) $GTAGSCONF
(2) [project root]/gtags.conf
(3) $HOME/.globalrc
(4) /etc/gtags.conf
(5) [sysconfdir]/gtags.conf
Since "(2) [project root]/gtags.conf" has a higher priority
than "(3) $HOME/.globalrc", we cannot load $HOME/.globalrc
before deciding the project root directory.
In the contrary, is there a reason to specify GTAGSROOT or
GTAGSDBPATH in the configuration file?
