Quick heads up: this is tripping for me in the "git am --abort"
codepath:

  $ cd ~/src/linux
  $ git checkout v3.2.35
  $ git am -3sc /tmp/alsa-usb-audio-fix-missing-autopm-for-midi-input.patch 
  Applying: ALSA: usb-audio: Fix missing autopm for MIDI input
  Using index info to reconstruct a base tree...
  Falling back to patching base and 3-way merge...
  error: Your local changes to the following files would be overwritten by 
merge:
        sound/usb/midi.c
  Please, commit your changes or stash them before you can merge.
  Aborting
  Failed to merge in the changes.
  Patch failed at 0001 ALSA: usb-audio: Fix missing autopm for MIDI input
  When you have resolved this problem run "git am --resolved".
  If you would prefer to skip this patch, instead run "git am --skip".
  To restore the original branch and stop patching run "git am --abort".
  $ git am --abort
  error: cache entry has null sha1: sound/usb/midi.c
  fatal: unable to write new index file
  Unstaged changes after reset:
  M       sound/usb/midi.c
  $

Reproducible using v1.8.1-rc3 and master.  Bisects to 4337b585 (do not
write null sha1s to on-disk index, 2012-07-28).  For comparison, older
gits produced

  $ git am --abort
  Unstaged changes after reset:
  M       sound/usb/midi.c

which is also not great but at least didn't involve any obviously
invalid behavior.  Known problem?

Thanks,
Jonathan
