bug: git-stash save and symbolic links

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

 



git-stash cannot find the repository when the path is a symbolic link.
solution for me was to cd to the absolute path and then do git-stash.

FAILURE: git-stash with symbolic link.

prompt> pwd
/Users/neoneye/st
prompt> ls -la ~/st
lrwxr-xr-x  1 neoneye  neoneye  38 10 Okt 07:40 /Users/neoneye/st ->

SUCCESS: git-stash without symbolic link.

prompt> pwd
/Users/neoneye/git/code
prompt> ls -la

prompt> git stash save "did I mess up"
Saved working directory and index state "On master: did I mess up"
HEAD is now at 90ac45d we can now seek through a WAV file.. finally.

I think the problem is located in the save_stash() function, but
im not good at sh scripting to make a patch.



Thank you very much for git!
