Re: git rebase --continue with goofy error

That's the problem. I've resolved the conflicts, added everything. Then I run git rebase --continue and that's what I get. After I do the adds, am I supposed to commit them?

I am trying so, so hard to rebase a branch with updates made in master:

*********
git rebase master
*********

I get about 20 conflicts back, which I fix and do:

*********
git add *
*********

There were also many, many error messages after the rebase command, eg:

*********
error: test/unit/missing_year_test.rb: already exists in index
error: test/unit/axle_test.rb: already exists in index
error: test/unit/body_style_test.rb: already exists in index

error: test/unit/category_test.rb: already exists in index
error: test/unit/comment_test.rb: already exists in index
error: test/unit/company_comment_test.rb: does not exist in index
error: test/unit/country_test.rb: already exists in index
*********


but I ignore that error, because I have no idea what it means. If I were to guess, I'd say it's trying to copy files from master to my current branch. Of course.

So now I have added my conflict fixes, per the message:

*********
Failed to merge in the changes.
Patch failed at 0002.

When you have resolved this problem run "git rebase --continue".
If you would prefer to skip this patch, instead run "git rebase -- skip". To restore the original branch and stop rebasing run "git rebase -- abort".

So I decide to continue:

*********
git rebase --continue
*********


And I get the following:

*********

You still have unmerged paths in your index
did you forget to use 'git add'?

When you have resolved this problem run "git rebase --continue".
If you would prefer to skip this patch, instead run "git rebase -- skip". To restore the original branch and stop rebasing run "git rebase -- abort".

A google search of "git" and "Unknown option: 1" yields zero results. Notice I did not commit the adds. I didn't think it made sense to do that, since I imagine that is what the rebase is doing anyway?


I'm not sure what the first part of this is saying (The "unknown option").

The important part is later on:

You still have unmerged paths in your index
did you forget to use 'git add'?

After you resolve any conflicts, make sure to git add any remaining files before you "rebase --continue"

Scott
