Several "recovery" commands outright fail or do not fully recover when directory-file conflicts are present. This includes: * git read-tree --reset HEAD * git am --skip * git am --abort * git merge --abort (or git reset --merge) * git reset --hard
It turns out that multiple invocations of 'git reset --hard' can serve as a functional workaround, but I've been annoyed with that workaround for years. This time, I found the problem, and this patch series provides a fix for all of these.
