Subject: [BUG] git rebase is confuse if conflict resolution doesn't produce diff
Date: Fri, 15 Aug 2008 18:00:43 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1218819643.6345.57.camel@cass-lpt> (raw)
To reproduce:
- Rebase a branch "foo" on a branch "bar" in a way that there is a
conflict that you have to manually resolve.
- Run git diff and see the conflict
- Edit the conflicted file and remove all the conflicting bits (that
could be a valid resolution of the conflict)
- Now git diff produces an empty diff
- git add $CONFLICTED_FILE as you have resolve the conflict
- git rebase --continue
You get the following error:
No changes - did you forget to use 'git add'?
git status is empty as the conflict was resolved.
A simple workaround is to add a dummy blank line in the conflicted file
so the diff is not empty.
