I don't think it has ever worked correctly. A fix is below, but I'm really unsure if it is right. It seems like we should be able to just refresh the index and see its status, rather than calling the lstat ourselves. But perhaps this is an optimization to avoid refresh (see builtin-ls-files.c, lines 186-202). Junio? -- >8 -- Subject: [PATCH] ls-files: require worktree when --deleted is given The code will end up calling lstat() to check whether the file still exists; obviously this doesn't work if we're not in the worktree. Signed-off-by: Jeff King <peff@xxxxxxxx> --- The version in next has the same bug, but the code is totally different due to parseopt-ification (but the fix is still a one-liner to set require_work_tree when show_deleted is set). builtin-ls-files.c | 1 + 1 files changed, 1 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-) diff --git a/builtin-ls-files.c b/builtin-ls-files.c index 9dec282..ca6f33d 100644 --- a/builtin-ls-files.c +++ b/builtin-ls-files.c @@ -419,6 +419,7 @@ int cmd_ls_files(int argc, const char **argv, const char *prefix) } if (!strcmp(arg, "-d") || !strcmp(arg, "--deleted")) { show_deleted = 1; + require_work_tree = 1; continue; } if (!strcmp(arg, "-m") || !strcmp(arg, "--modified")) { -- 1.6.2.1.137.gb6aa78 -- 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
