We usually try not to have known issues that would require such a
warning for long.  And when we fail, reminders like yours are very
welcome, though a search through the mailing list archive for an
existing thread to reply to instead of starting a new one is always
welcome.

Sorry for the trouble.

Sincerely,
Jonathan

Hello Ayush,

Run:

  git config --global color.ui auto
  git config --unset --local color.ui #in case it's set locally

This is a known 'breakage' because people have set color.ui to always
(which should not be used anyway).

Kind regards, Kevin

No, there's just the mailing list archive. But you can search it. E.g.:

  https://public-inbox.org/git/?q=%22add+-p%22

finds the relevant threads.

Hey Jeff,

Thank you for your mail. It works :)

For future reference, is there a page for known issues of git?

This is a known issue in v2.14.2 with having "color.ui" set to "always"
in your config.

There's a fix in v2.15.0-rc1. You can either upgrade to that, or as a
workaround set "color.ui" to "auto" (or remove it completely from your
config, as "auto" is the default).

I have recently updated to git version 2.14.2. The problem started
happening after that.
Made changes to a file. Tried `git add -p`.

> - What did you expect to happen?

Enter the patch add mode of git.

> - What happened instead?

Usual git patch mode is that it shows a patch and expects user to
add/skip/split etc. Instead it never stops to take input from me.

See this ->


git add -p
diff --git a/Tests/OSXTests/TDTStreamingTests.m
b/Tests/OSXTests/TDTStreamingTests.m
index 35757bc..525fe56 100644
--- a/Tests/OSXTests/TDTStreamingTests.m

-  NSDate *date = [NSDate dateWithTimeIntervalSinceNow:0.1];
+  NSDate *date = [NSDate dateWithTimeIntervalSinceNow:0.01];
   [[NSRunLoop currentRunLoop] runUntilDate:date];
 }

 Expecting git input mode to stop the process here #
 Instead git exits without any error #

It'd be helpful to know:

- What did you do?
- What did you expect to happen?
- What happened instead?

I suspect you are using --patch with a new file, so you probably need to first
add it with -N or so. This is just a shot in the dark though...

Thanks,
-Santiago.
