Right. Inside git trees, "." as an entry name does not have any special meaning. However, because it does have meaning in filesystems, git itself will never create such an entry, and "git fsck" will warn about it. > I've reported the bug to stackedit ( > https://github.com/benweet/stackedit/issues/405 > ) who ignore it (not their fault). GitHub normally blocks objects that do not pass "fsck" from being pushed, but there are some loopholes when going through the API, which stackedit does. I'll bring this one to the attention of the GitHub API developers. However, the end result will probably be GitHub rejecting the API request from stackedit to create the bogus tree. So stackedit may end up wanting to adjust their code to handle the situation more gracefully anyway. -Peff -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
