The 'index' line in your 'diff --cc' output says that back when you created that stash, the HEAD and your index both held a blob object 68a9bac and your working tree didn't have that file, ie, removed. It is very natural that the file is removed when you apply that stash. -- Nanako Shiraishi http://ivory.ap.teacup.com/nanako3/ -- 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
