Subject: [PATCH 0/5] "best effort" checkout
Date: Wed, 28 May 2008 17:17:20 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1212020246-26480-1-git-send-email-gitster@pobox.com> (raw)

I consider the first one is not part of the series but a bugfix.

The remainder is to teach "git checkout" not to punt in the middle once it
has started touching the work tree.

It does _not_ attempt to autorename a file whose name is NUL to something
else.  Partly because I personally think that sort of magic (or "a cute
hack") makes the system unnecessarily complex and fragile while not adding
much to the usability, but more importantly because I do not think we are
ready to adopt that kind of complexity yet, before fixing more basic issue
like this series addresses.

[PATCH 1/5] "git checkout -- paths..." should error out when paths cannot be written
[PATCH 2/5] checkout: make reset_clean_to_new() not die by itself
[PATCH 3/5] checkout: consolidate reset_{to_new,clean_to_new|()
[PATCH 4/5] unpack_trees(): allow callers to differentiate worktree errors from merge errors
[PATCH 5/5] checkout: "best effort" checkout
[PATCH 6/5] NUL hack to create_file()
