I believe this problem is a similar symptom. basically mergetool should touch my files before I tell it what to do. if it has to move and back up my files before deciding then at the very least it should copy them back into place if I delete the remote. preferably in this case though it would just delete the remote or backup my local files and copy the remote in after I told it what to do (or maybe even delete my local files). -- Caleb Cushing http://xenoterracide.blogspot.com -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
