Dear git experts, Recently we try to upgrade ubuntu from 17.10 to 18.04, then we found one inconsistent behavior on git clone.
At 2.14.1 or 2.15.1, if I run command like - mkdir /tmp/111 - git clone g...@github.com:111/111 /tmp/111 because it will failure, then /tmp/111 will be removed automatically. However, at latest 2.17.0 which is part of ubuntu 18.04, seems like git clone failure will not auto remove this folder. I notice 2.16.2 and 2.17.0 release note includes this fix. So just wonder to know if prior behavior was think of bug, and this fix has change the behavior. * "git clone $there $here" is allowed even when here directory exists as long as it is an empty directory, but the command incorrectly removed it upon a failure of the operation.
