Subject: [PATCH 0/8] Avoid removing the current working directory, even if it becomes empty
Date: Sun, 21 Nov 2021 00:46:52 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <pull.1140.git.git.1637455620.gitgitgadget@gmail.com> (raw)
Traditionally, if folks run git commands such as checkout or rebase from a
subdirectory, that git command could remove their current working directory
and result in subsequent git and non-git commands either getting confused or
printing messages that confuse the user (e.g. "fatal: Unable to read current
working directory: No such file or directory"). We already refuse to remove
directories that have untracked files within them[1], preferring to show an
error; with this series, we tweak that rule a bit to also refuse to remove
the current working directory even if it has no untracked files within it.
Peff endorsed the idea behind this series at [2] and even pointed out a
corner case that he suggested (and I agree) would probably be more
problematic to attempt to address than to leave be.
This series has a minor textual conflict with so/stash-staged (in next),
because both series add a new parameter to the do_push_stash() function. The
correct resolution is simple -- just to take both new parameters. However,
let me know if you'd rather I rebased onto so/stash-staged.
(Sorry for the delay; I know I promised this months ago in response to [3],
but it was blocked by some preliminary series and then by my absence during
a migration at $DAYJOB).
[1] well, with a few exceptions; see
