Subject: [PATCH] Allow removing files in a subdirectory.
Date: Sun, 01 May 2005 04:16:17 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <7vu0lnxkla.fsf@assigned-by-dhcp.cox.net> (raw)
I found this during a conflict merge testing. The original did
not have either DF (a file) or DF/DF (a file DF/DF under a
directory DF). One side created DF, the other created DF/DF. I
first resolved DF as a new file by taking what the first side
did. After that, the entry DF/DF cannot be resolved by running
git-update-cache --remove although it does not exist on the
filesystem.
$ /bin/ls -F
AN DF MN NM NN SS Z/
$ git-ls-files --stage | grep DF
100644 71420ab81e254145d26d6fc0cddee64c1acd4787 0 DF
100644 68a6d8b91da11045cf4aa3a5ab9f2a781c701249 2 DF/DF
$ git-update-cache --remove DF/DF
fatal: Unable to add DF/DF to database
It turns out that the errno from open() in this case was not
ENOENT but ENOTDIR, which the code did not check. Here is a
fix.
