From b15aa973b296ca36ae39592491bcb02944ac0f7a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jonathan Nieder Date: Wed, 23 Nov 2011 04:04:52 -0600 Subject: [PATCH] revert --abort: do not leave behind useless sequencer-old directory The "git cherry-pick --abort" command currently renames the .git/sequencer directory to .git/sequencer-old instead of removing it on success due to an accident. cherry-pick --abort is designed to work in three steps: 1) find which commit to roll back to 2) call "git reset --merge " to move to that commit 3) remove the .git/sequencer directory But the careless author forgot step 3 entirely. The only reason the command worked anyway is that "git reset --merge " renames the .git/sequencer directory as a secondary effect --- after moving to , or so the logic goes, it is unlikely but possible that the caller of git reset wants to continue the series of cherry-picks that was in progress, so git renames the sequencer state to .git/sequencer-old to be helpful while allowing the cherry-pick to be resumed if the caller did not want to end the sequence after all. By running "git cherry-pick --abort", the operator has clearly indicated that she is not planning to continue cherry-picking. Remove the (renamed) .git/sequencer directory as intended all along.
