Apparent bug in 'git stash push <subdir>' loses untracked files

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

 



When running 'git stash push <subdir>' if there are both tracked and
untracked files in this subdirectory, the tracked files are stashed
but the untracked files are discarded.

I can reproduce this on my system (OSX, git 2.14.1) by running the
below script as

    bash -x ./stashbug.sh &> output.txt

I could not find this indicated anywhere as an existing issue by
performing generic searches, apologies if this is known.
