Subject: Possible bug
Date: Sat, 23 Jul 2011 21:25:59 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAOnWdohKfwEOMx=wr_PKiW+ucYBK2ZWykm_7dqr7hy4xGRM02A@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Observe the following exchange with git 1.7.4.1, which I found rather
perplexing:

$ cat ~/reportbug-git
$ git rm -f ../INSTALL
rm 'INSTALL'
$ git ci -m "INSTALL is now provided by gnulib." ../INSTALL
error: pathspec 'ALL' did not match any file(s) known to git.
$ cd ..
$ git ci -m "INSTALL is now provided by gnulib." INSTALL
[master 0895314] INSTALL is now provided by gnulib.
 1 files changed, 0 insertions(+), 1 deletions(-)
 delete mode 120000 INSTALL

Is this a bug, or merely some magic I don't know about?
