git reset --hard and uncommitted files in index

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,

Today I was working on a script that modify many files on a repository,
therefore during testing phase I needed to reset --hard to get back to
the last commit. This operation does not affect untracked files.

Since i was going to commit the script, at some point I decided to add
it to the index so I could track/revert changes to it. On the next reset
Git deleted the script.

Fortunately "git add" creates an object that I could easily recover
(thanks to wereHamster on #git for pointing that out), however I was
wondering if it's really the desired behavior to *delete* a file that
have been added to the index but isn't on the previous commit? Shouldn't
git just unstage it?
