Funny how the same ideas always come in packs: I had the same discussions a few nights ago on IRC.

Instead this is what you _should_ do: git add <the files that you care about> git stash Hth, Dscho - 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
