I wonder what is your output of git status.

Anyway, I would try delete everything except one .git/ hidden folder,
and do git checkout oldest.

Note: I didn't try bibisect40 yet, so this may not work. :-)

Best Regards,

I have added Ken's pair of commands from his earlier email and his
recommendation from below to the wiki, with no more explanation than
if one does not solve the problem, try the next.
The change:

2FHowToBibisectaction=historysubmitdiff=81218oldid=81064;
the result:
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/HowToBibisect#Installed_LibreOffice_became_modified_unexpectedly.

 
 Note: I didn't try bibisect40 yet, so this may not work. :-)

Several times along the way, I have resorted to the extreme measure of
deleting the directory with the bibisect repository and extracting it
again from the tarfile.  That is perhaps the ultimate repair.

Terry.

provide that you do have a .git directory in there

then rm -fr * (will delete everything but .git /.gitignore and othe .* files)
then
git checkout newest  (assuming that the repo has a 'newest' tag)
should bring you back in a 'sane state'
then again maybe you are in the middle of a bisection.. then git
bisect --reset may help
it is a bit hard to fix thing 'blind'.. but assuredly it is fixable...
it is just a matter of understanding in what state your tree is

Yes, that is the most drastic approach :-) In most cases we hopefully
can avoid needing to take that step!

Many of the bibisect woes that we've encountered in the past have been
tracked back to interactions with other running instances of soffice
(often touching the same user profile). Things I would try include
- Shutting down all versions of Libre/Open Office
- Checking again (ps aux|grep office)
- Restarting the computer

To avoid these types of interactions in the future, I suggest using a
wrapper script (not checked-in, but located in the same directory as
the bibisect repo). Here's one I cooked up based on Miroslaw's
suggestions (I'm in the process of getting it added to the buildbot
repo):
http://testing.eagleeyet.net/~qubit/bibisect/run-libreoffice.sh

Cheers,

For this situation, the wiki page How to Bibisect
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/HowToBibisect#Installed_LibreOffice_became_modified_unexpectedly
prescribes:

git checkout .

From my limited understanding of git, I think either solution would do
the job.  Should I add Norbert's pair of commands to the wiki in
addition to or instead of what is there?

Thanks,
Terry.
