What did you do before the bug happened? (Steps to reproduce your issue) mkdir test cd test git init touch test git add test git commit -m 'init' podman run --rm -it -v `pwd`:/git:z --entrypoint sh docker.io/alpine > container# apk add git > container# cd /git > container# git diff-index --quiet HEAD -- ; echo $? 1 > container# git diff-index --quiet HEAD -- ; echo $? 1 > container# git status On branch master nothing to commit, working tree clean > container# git diff-index --quiet HEAD -- ; echo $? 0 What did you expect to happen? (Expected behavior) `git diff-index --quiet HEAD -- ; echo $?` should return `0` even without executing `git status`. What happened instead? (Actual behavior) Without executing `git status` `git diff-index --quiet HEAD -- ; echo $?` will repeatedly print `1`. What's different between what you expected and what actually happened? It is odd that `git diff-index --quiet HEAD -- ; echo $?` prints different results depending on whether `git status` was executed. Anything else you want to add: Perhaps this has to do with running git in a container?
