Subject: Strange bug on MacOSX - can anyone reproduce?
Date: Fri, 18 Apr 2008 11:04:42 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <3F7A8E3C-486E-464D-9403-7C08045A2C51@theobroma-systems.com> (raw)

Hi!

I've a very strange bug on MacOSX 10.5 on a case sensitive HFS+  
filesystem.

git very regular show the following behavior:

git op fails with an "error: Unable to append to $(FILE)" message, a  
"cat $(FILE)" and the same git op
solves the problem deterministically.

Here is an example:

rlezuo@rlezuo:~/Projects/XXX/documentation$ git pull

remote: Compressing objects: 100% (74/74), done.
remote: Total 74 (delta 59), reused 0 (delta 0)
Unpacking objects: 100% (74/74), done.

can anyone reproduce this? Is this a git bug or is this a OSX bug?
