From 613f02739a49337592a32936caa04b1590ca1109 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Junio C Hamano Date: Mon, 15 May 2006 00:46:05 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] read-tree -u one-way merge fix to check out locally modified paths. The "-u" flag means "update the working tree files", but to other types of merges, it also implies "I want to keep my local changes" -- because they prevent local changes from getting lost by using verify_uptodate. The one-way merge is different from other merges in that its purpose is opposite of doing something else while keeping unrelated local changes. The point of one-way merge is to nuke local changes. So while it feels somewhat wrong that this actively loses local changes, it is the right thing to do.
