Subject: Possible bug: Changing branch with file locked
Date: Thu, 9 Jul 2020 14:01:04 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <CADGzKpxJ7_5htGVgHfvU-caPTm2tLxmCvuc-RoYkxaS=cPY1FA@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
Hi,
I want to inform you about the fact when I changed a branch with VS
Code open and git did not have permissions to address some files in
the other branch (or in current branch). I got an error message. That
is OK, but my current branch got also polluted with files (from the
other branch?). I needed to run “git stash -u” to get rid of those.
I guess this can be reproduced if one locks a file which is in a
branch and changes the branch. Better functionality would be that git
would only show the error message, not to pollute the branch with
files.
Yours,
Antti Tanskanen
