Subject: [PATCH] rebase: use -f for checkout
Date: Wed, 10 Apr 2013 21:11:24 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1365617484-5181-1-git-send-email-orgads@gmail.com> (raw)

If a file's case is changed on rename (Foo -> foo), rebase
fails on Windows because the file already exists.

The change is safe, because if working directory is not clean
rebase fails before checking out.
