Hi, maybe this helps you reproduce. I think I should have committed before
doing the second changes but I still got the error message and the two

Is it possible that the å character is coming from a UTF-16 encoding and is not representable in UTF-8? I'm wondering whether the name has a double-byte representation where one of the bytes is null, resulting in a truncated file name coming from readdir(). The file name would not be representable on some platforms that do not support UTF-16 path names.

I don't think that's the case (the angstrom is present in UTF-8 [1]).
I think it's another UTF-8 precomposed/decomposed bug. As far as I
was able to test it happens as soon as you have a precomposed character
in the folder name. I observed the same behaviour with a folder named
"folderü", for example. I also tried 'git -c add.interactive.usebuiltin restore -p .'
to see if the new experimental builtin§ add-interactive has the same problem,
and it does (though the error is less verbose).

Anyway as you show with 'git status', it's not just 'git add -p' that is
faulty, it's deeper than that, I would say.

Cheers,

Philippe.

Folks, I can not reproduce anything here.
- The zip file mentioned earlier does not include a decomposed "å"
   Neither when running unzip under Linux nor under Mac
- Trying to write a test script does not show anything special

My attempt looks like this:

With a few modifications, you should see things start to get strange:

cat test.sh
#!/bin/sh
DIR=git-test-restore-p
GIT=/usr/local/bin/git

Adiarnfc=$(printf '\303\204')
Adiarnfd=$(printf 'A\314\210')
DIRNAME=xx${Adiarnfd}yy
FILENAME=$DIRNAME/file

change to:
FILENAME=file


rm -rf $DIR &&
     mkdir $DIR &&
     cd $DIR &&
     $GIT init &&
     mkdir $DIRNAME &&

add:
cd $DIRNAME &&

     echo "Initial" >$FILENAME &&

add:
$GIT status &&

     $GIT add $FILENAME &&

add:
$GIT status &&

     echo  >>$FILENAME &&
     echo  >>$FILENAME &&
     echo "One more line"  >>$FILENAME &&
     echo  >>$FILENAME &&
     echo  >>$FILENAME &&
     echo "Last line"  >$FILENAME &&

add:
$GIT status &&

     $GIT restore -p . &&
     $GIT restore -p . &&
     echo git=$GIT &&
     $GIT --version &&
     echo "OK"

==================================
It points out Git from brew, I think.

I don't think it's a packaging bug;
I tried with /usr/bin/git on macOS 10.11 (git version 2.10.1 (Apple Git-78))
and I also get a (different) error but the command does not fail
(I needed to change restore to reset):

$ ./test.sh
