From 19a7fcbf16276321f83e0c1748b3935a2ea42675 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jeff King Date: Tue, 11 Aug 2009 23:27:40 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] allow pull --rebase on branch yet to be born When doing a "pull --rebase", we check to make sure that the index and working tree are clean. The index-clean check compares the index against HEAD. The test erroneously reports dirtiness if we don't have a HEAD yet. In such an "unborn branch" case, by definition, a non-empty index won't be based on whatever we are pulling down from the remote, and will lose the local change. Just check if $GIT_DIR/index exists and error out.
