This can indeed be confusing; it's a result of git-annex using git-ls-files --others. joey@gnu:~/src/other/git>git ls-files --others zlib.o fofofofoofof zlib.o Since using git-ls-files is so convenient in most ways, all I can think to do about this is document it. -- see shy jo signature.asc Description: Digital signature ___ vcs-home mailing list vcs-home@lists.madduck.net http://lists.madduck.net/listinfo/vcs-home
git annex add silently ignores non-existent files
git annex add this_file_does_not_exist does not result in a warning. This leads to confusing (lack of) behaviour in certain cases, e.g. generate_a_list_of_files_some_of_which_contain_spaces | xargs git annex add would silently fail to add the files containing spaces (because you'd need the -d or -0 switch to xargs to cope with this case). ___ vcs-home mailing list vcs-home@lists.madduck.net http://lists.madduck.net/listinfo/vcs-home
