Subject: pull: do not clobber untracked files on initial pull
X-Git-Tag: v1.7.5-rc1~20^2

pull: do not clobber untracked files on initial pull

For a pull into an unborn branch, we do not use "git merge"
at all. Instead, we call read-tree directly. However, we
used the --reset parameter instead of "-m", which turns off
the safety features.
