I am not sure about what you mean by "first bit", but I added this after noticing there was a case where the path was not picked up from index/head/remote correctly because the "pick up the path from ancestors, while we check for any_anc_missing and no_anc_exists condition" loop at the beginning already set it to point at stages[i]->name (which is an empty string "" name of the df-conflict entry). But I notice that "aggressive" codepath is the only thing that wants to use the path (it uses it to check the working tree status), so maybe we should move that path computation business inside the aggressive codepath. - 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
