Peculiar behavior of git 1.5.6

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



On one of my systems, I found strange behavior for git-1.5.6.GIT. On the first pull of the linux-2.6 tree, I got a message that one file was not uptodate. When I investigated any possible differences with git-diff, there were none. A subsequent git-pull worked fine. I lost the console output for linux-2.6, but the same thing happened for Linville's wireless-testing, as shown below:

finger@sonylap:~/wireless-testing> git --version
git version 1.5.6.GIT
finger@sonylap:~/wireless-testing> git pull
error: Entry 'drivers/bluetooth/bt3c_cs.c' not uptodate. Cannot merge.
fatal: merging of trees 294e21019bac11cb782e8d1893d02ce98ed816a4 and 810d24221c9c532475af90d1b7ba9ca381dc3696 failed

finger@sonylap:~/wireless-testing> cat tmp
finger@sonylap:~/wireless-testing> git pull

Is this a bug in git, an incompatibility between my version and that of the server at kernel.org, or something else?

Thanks,

Larry
