Why git silently replaces untracked files? # mkdir test.git # mkdir 1 # mkdir 2 # echo 1 > 1/test # echo 2 > 2/test # cd test.git # git init --bare # cd .. # git clone test.git # cp -r test/.git 1 # cp -r test/.git 2 # cd 1 # git add test # git commit -am 1 # git push origin master # cd ../2 # git pull # cat test 1 In my opinion it is wrong behavior. I've just lost important file due to it. Should not "git pull" fail here? Anyhow it looks more correct then silent replacing.
