Hi, list! OS X 10.6.3 Git 1.7.0.4 When I "touch" a file, gitk lists it in "local uncommitted changes, not checked in to index" (without a difference, just a name). I believe that it should not. Git status, and git commit do ignore such files. After git reset --hard, gitk stops seeing changes as expected. See steps to reproduce below. HTH, Alexander. $ mkdir touch $ cd touch $ git init $ echo "A" > alpha $ git add alpha $ git commit -m "alpha" $ touch alpha $ git status # On branch master nothing to commit (working directory clean) $ gitk --all Observe "local uncommitted changes, not checked in to index" -- To unsubscribe from this list: 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
