Upgrading a direct mode repo to v7 while it has a deleted file in it
|
|
|
|
|
behaves strangely. This is after my recent change to not make it commit.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A `git checkout` of the file checks out the pointer file, as the content
|
|
|
|
|
of the file is not present. This is as expected.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
But `git whereis` thinks the content is present, which it's not any longer.
|
|
|
|
|
Seems that the upgrade process needs to notice when a deleted file was the
|
|
|
|
|
only copy of the content, and set its content as not present.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
And `git fsck` doesn't find a problem, despite the content not being
|
|
|
|
|
present. And does not fix the location log.
|
|
|
|
|
This part may not be specific to this case, seems it must be some bug in
|
|
|
|
|
fsck?
