Or just being stat-dirty is sufficient to cause the "stash create" to fail? > I just want to show what sence will meet this errors: > > 1. touch file > 2. git add file > 3. git stash push (user may do it before git merge) > 4. touch file (update file but not update its content) > 5. git merge (call git stash create and return 1) I think, from the above reproduction recipe, that the breakage does not depend on racily-clean index entries (i.e. file touched within the same timestamp as the last write of the index without changing their size). So s/racy-dirty/stat-dirty/ (both on the title and the body) would be a sufficient fix. Thanks.
