From ed93b449c5e13a70beb7f0ae02fb6da95e42a805 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Junio C Hamano Date: Sun, 8 Oct 2006 22:48:06 -0700 Subject: merge: loosen overcautious "working file will be lost" check. The three-way merge complained unconditionally when a path that does not exist in the index is involved in a merge when it existed in the working tree. If we are merging an old version that had that path tracked, but the path is not tracked anymore, and if we are merging that old version in, the result will be that the path is not tracked. In that case we should not complain.
