Subject: git-history(1) fixup broken with worktrees?
Date: Fri, 17 Jul 2026 20:54:47 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87jyqt1m6g.fsf@emacs.iotcl.com> (raw)
Hi,
Imagine this repoducer:
$ git init
$ echo Hello > README
$ git add .
$ git commit -m'initial commit'
$ git worktree add ../feature
$ echo world >> README
$ git add .
$ git history fixup HEAD
$ cd ../feature
Now running git-status(1) in that other worktree gives me:
$ git status
On branch feature
Changes to be committed:
(use "git restore --staged <file>..." to unstage)
modified: README
And:
$ git diff --staged
diff --git a/README b/README
index 65a56c3..e965047 100644
--- a/README
+++ b/README
@@ -1,2 +1 @@
Hello
-world
So suddenly my other worktree is dirty? With staged changes?
And I didn't even touch it.
Now the commit history is correct:
$ git log --graph --oneline --all
* 16ef548 (HEAD -> feature, main) initial commit
--
Cheers,
Toon
