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. > [[done]] --[[Joey]] 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? > It was, a new bug introduced while removing the direct mode code. Fixed > that part. --[[Joey]]
