From 4a58c3d7f7a83ebcd4ede635871cab7be24f7f3f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johannes Schindelin Date: Wed, 30 Oct 2019 10:49:38 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] stash: handle staged changes in skip-worktree files correctly When calling `git stash` while changes were staged for files that are marked with the `skip-worktree` bit (e.g. files that are excluded in a sparse checkout), the files are recorded as _deleted_ instead. The reason is that `git stash` tries to construct the tree reflecting the worktree essentially by copying the index to a temporary one and then updating the files from the worktree. Crucially, it calls `git diff-index` to update also those files that are in the HEAD but have been unstaged in the index. However, when the temporary index is updated via `git update-index --add --remove`, skip-worktree entries mark the files as deleted by mistake. Let's use the newly-introduced `--ignore-skip-worktree-entries` option of `git update-index` to prevent exactly this from happening. Note that the regression test case deliberately avoids replicating the scenario described above and instead tries to recreate just the symptom. Reported by Dan Thompson.
