Johannes, Junio, I've managed to repro the problem -- which was totally reproduceable, I was just testing the wrong version of the script. The problem was quite obvious: when running an incremental, the first head would not get the index created properly. Even worse, when forking a new branch, the index would be empty too. Fixed both cases and posted separately. Thanks for the sharp eyes, and sorry about the bug! martin - : send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
