Subject: [PATCH 0/2] checkout: don't follow symlinks when removing entries
Date: Thu, 18 Mar 2021 15:43:45 -0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <cover.1616091229.git.matheus.bernardino@usp.br> (raw)
If the leading path of a tracked file gets replaced by a symlink, git
checkout will follow that symlink when removing the file. This bug seems
to be present since 2011. Fix that and add a regression test.
