Dec 4, 2012 at 21:32	comment	added	Zo the Relativist		Yes, but if you're trying to derive the geodesic equation, you lose nothing but headaches by substituting this action with $S = \int ds (g_{ab}{\dot x}^{a}{\dot x}^{b})$, where ${\dot x}^{a} = \frac{\partial x^{a}}{\partial s}$, since a minimum of $\int f(x)$ is also going to be a minimum of $\int (f(x))^{2}$
