Subject: [PATCH] Fix 'git commit -a' in a newly initialized repository
Date: Thu, 22 Feb 2007 21:28:12 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070222202812.8882.44375.stgit@c165> (raw)


With current git:

$ git init
$ git commit -a
cp: cannot stat `.git/index': No such file or directory

Output a nice error message instead.
