From: Junio C Hamano Date: Tue, 5 Dec 2006 03:44:40 +0000 (-0800) Subject: git-reset to remove "$GIT_DIR/MERGE_MSG" X-Git-Tag: v1.4.4.2^0 X-Git-Url: https://git.tokkee.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=49ed2bc4660c7cd0592cf21cc514080574d06320;p=git.git git-reset to remove "$GIT_DIR/MERGE_MSG" An earlier commit a9cb3c6e changed git-commit to use the contents of MERGE_MSG even when we do not have MERGE_HEAD (the rationale is in its log message). However, the change tricks the following sequence to include a merge message in a completely unrelated commit: $ git pull somewhere : oops, the conflicts are too much. forget it. $ git reset --hard : work work work $ git commit To fix this confusion, this patch makes "git reset" to remove the leftover MERGE_MSG that was prepared when the user abandoned the merge.
