Re: What's in git.git (stable)

[Steven Grimm <koreth@midwinter.com>]

Will you be applying your patch for the "checkout fails if something is 
a file in one branch and a directory in another" problem? I realize it's 
not a complete solution, but it's at least a significant improvement 
over the current behavior, and I don't imagine it breaks anything else.

I can resend my test case if you like.
