Hi friends!
I've stumbled across what I believe is a bug
I've found myself with new files that are staged, not part of the
sparse-checkout, that I cannot unstage using git restore --staged, ie
git restore --staged :\
does nothing.
I'm able to get rid of the using
git stash && git stash drop
but intuitively I would expect restore --staged to work, even if the
files are not part of the sparse checkout
I end up in this peculiar situation by doing the following.
Having branches:
foo/bar
origin/foo
and then running
git switch -c foo
Updatings files: 100% (X/X) done.
fatal: cannot lock ref 'refs/heads/foo': 'refs/heads/foo/bar' exists;
cannot create 'refs/heads/foo'
