In general, it is possible to add attributes on your local copy like this, but it is not recommendet, at least not from me. In general, the project should have a .gitattributes file, which belongs to the project and which travels together with push and pull. And of course, files should have been "normalized" and have LF in the repo. In your case: What does git config core.autocrlf say? []

In essence, I am fairly certain that v2.12.2(2) should *not* display this behavior. If my hunch is wrong, please do fill out a full bug report at https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/new, preferably with a short and sweet script to reproduce the problem elsewhere.

Hi, My little bitbucket "cherry-pick" button is failing on Windows from a "git reset --hard" blowing up. My situation: Git-2.10.2.windows.1 / Bitbucket-4.14.3 / Windows 10-10.0-amd64. But I suspect even more recent Git will have the same problem. Now, I'm pretty far from Kansas here as you'll see from my "git clone" invocation: git.exe clone -c core.checkStat=minimal -c core.fileMode=false -c core.ignoreStat=true -c core.trustctime=false -c core.logAllRefUpdates=false --shared C:\Users\gsylvie\dev\bb\target\bitbucket\home\shared\data\repositories\1 C:\Users\gsylvie\dev\bb\target\bitbucket\home\caches\bbClones\1 Right after cloning I create a ".git/info/attributes" file containing just this one line: * -text After the clone, here's the sequence of commands leading up to the bad "git reset --hard". These are all fine (well, the "--aborts" whine a little, but that's expected): git.exe branch --unset-upstream git.exe update-index --refresh git.exe rebase --abort git.exe cherry-pick --abort And here's the "git reset --hard" that fails: git.exe reset --hard --quiet d6edcbf924697ab811a867421dab60d954ccad99 -- --- Exit=128 error: Entry 'basic_branching/file.txt' not uptodate. Cannot merge. fatal: Could not reset index file to revision 'd6edcbf924697ab811a867421dab60d954ccad99'. --- For now I've come up with an astonishing workaround: I just run "git status" afterwards, and then everything is fine! I'm going to limp along with this remedy, but I thought I'd share it here in case anyone has any ideas, or in case it really is a bug. - Sylvie p.s. Thanks for mentioning "git-reverse.sh" in git rev news!
