It'd do exactly the same It's said somewhere "git pull" has strange behaviour and fetch+pull is recommended.
So why do you use fetch+merge?
sorry, I made a mistake, that should come from "git merge",
so, you just have an unresolved merge. It was discussed on this mailing list very recently (and actually is being discussed), so just look at the archives.

I guess the cause is a interrupted merge operation that leads to textual difference.
yes, though what I can't understand is why don't you have unmerged entries... Maybe it comes from playing with all these commands you mentioned in the original mail.
After run "git reset --hard", all deleted files come back, but I reach the old state: $ git status
When? Immediately after git reset --hard? Then you very likely have no permission to write (or lost it somehow) into the working directory, otherwise I don't see could this be possible. git reset --hard rewrites everything.

which is correct.
"git diff" shows many diffs:
and this is not. You do have changes, which could not be reset. I fail to see why. Are you sure you haven't accidentally repeated the merge after doing git reset --hard? And what was _exactly_ git merge told you, when it failed? - 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
