Package: git Version: 1:2.11.0-3+deb9u3 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
If you use git add -N to add a renamed file, git status --porcelain produces malformed output (it specifies a rename without emitting both the source and destination names). Steps to reproduce: git init touch foo.txt git add . git commit -m first mv foo.txt bar.txt git add -N bar.txt git status --porcelain I expect this to output: R foo.txt -> bar.txt But instead this outputs: R foo.txt Note that this is fixed in later versions of Git (at least 2.17, but there might be an earlier release that behaves as expected). -- System Information: Debian Release: 9.5 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.9.0-7-amd64 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages git depends on: ii dpkg 1.18.25 ii git-man 1:2.11.0-3+deb9u3 ii libc6 2.24-11+deb9u3 ii libcurl3-gnutls 7.52.1-5+deb9u6 ii liberror-perl 0.17024-1 ii libexpat1 2.2.0-2+deb9u1 ii libpcre3 2:8.39-3 ii perl 5.24.1-3+deb9u4 ii zlib1g 1:1.2.8.dfsg-5 Versions of packages git recommends: ii less 481-2.1 ii openssh-client [ssh-client] 1:7.4p1-10+deb9u3 ii patch 2.7.5-1+deb9u1 ii rsync 3.1.2-1+deb9u1 Versions of packages git suggests: ii gettext-base 0.19.8.1-2 pn git-arch <none> pn git-cvs <none> pn git-daemon-run | git-daemon-sysvinit <none> pn git-doc <none> pn git-el <none> pn git-email <none> pn git-gui <none> pn git-mediawiki <none> pn git-svn <none> pn gitk <none> pn gitweb <none> -- no debconf information
