[PATCH 1/3] Use a temporary index for git commit --interactive

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

 



Change the behaviour of git commit --interactive so that when you abort
the commit (by leaving the commit message empty) the index remains
unchanged.

Hitherto an aborted commit --interactive has added the selected hunks to
the index regardless of whether the commit succeeded or not.
