git rebase likes to fail miserably on Mac OS X Lion

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

 



On 4 different Mac OS X Lion machines, rebasing my commits (I currently have 14 of them) yields either of the following _consistently_ across varied repositories:

fatal: Unable to create '/Users/joshua/src/project/.git/index.lock': File exists.

or:

error: Your local changes to the following files would be overwritten by merge:

^^^ There are no local changes when the rebase begins. This is caused by the rebase.

I have tried both Git v1.7.5.4 and 1.7.8.4.

I use msysGit for the majority of my Git usage, and I do not run into this problem there.

Is there anything to be done? Right now, the only workaround I can think of is to cherry pick changes one at a time as a fake rebase. Ick.

Thanks.

Josh
