Howdy,


Duke:  This was (bad) side effect of the problem last night where you and I 
were each fixing the same point in the same file.  I got a merge-conflict there 
last night.  I thought I had it all cleaned up at that time.  Turns out I had 
not.  So things got further muddled today; one thing led to another ...

To clear things up on my end, I blew away my local repository and did a fresh 
clone from git.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

No worries, Jim. If there is anything that I can add to our git
workflow document to prevent others from running into something like
this, please let me know.

Maybe add a note that blowing away the local repository is basically never necessary with git, you can usually reset everything with

$ git clean -xdf   # attention, deletes all files not under version control
$ git checkout master
$ git reset --hard origin/master
$ git checkout .

(not sure if the last step is actually needed)

It doesn't really solve the problem mentioned here, but it can make things more efficient for the confused contributor.

Cheers,
Moritz
