When creating a brand new git repository through git-cvsimport (not incremental import), force a checkout of HEAD of master as working tree after successful import using the -f switch to git checkout. Otherwise the working tree is empty, and all files are reported as 'deleted' by git status. This was noticed and reported by Cameron Dale through http://bugs.debian.org/430903 Signed-off-by: Gerrit Pape <pape@xxxxxxxxxxx> --- git-cvsimport.perl | 2 +- 1 files changed, 1 insertions(+), 1 deletions(-) diff --git a/git-cvsimport.perl b/git-cvsimport.perl index 69ccb88..ba23eb8 100755 --- a/git-cvsimport.perl +++ b/git-cvsimport.perl @@ -1007,7 +1007,7 @@ if ($orig_branch) { if ($opt_r && $opt_o ne 'HEAD'); system('git-update-ref', 'HEAD', "$orig_branch"); unless ($opt_i) { - system('git checkout'); + system('git checkout -f'); die "checkout failed: $?\n" if $?; } } -- 1.5.2.1 - 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
