Glad that helped! FWIW `--` is a fairly common idiom amongst the various
Magit popup windows that are fronting git commands that use that on the
CLI.

Is `d -- ./folder RET r ref1..ref2` what you're looking for?

Re: magit-clone in a tramp directory?

[Tim Visher]

This would be indicative of a problem with not stripping the magic file
name properly but I believe start-file-process should do that for us…

```
$ mkdir -p '/scp:core:/opt/code/db-replicators'
mkdir: cannot create directory ‘/scp:core:’: Permission denied
```

magit-clone in a tramp directory?

[Tim Visher]

I'm on magit 2.8.0 and when I call magit-clone in a tramp directory, it
fails with the following error message:

```
error in process sentinel: Git error: #("could not create leading
directories of '/scp:core:/opt/code/db-replicators': Permission denied (in
/scp:core:/opt/code/)" 101 104 (tramp-default t))
```

When I call it in a non-tramp directory it works as expected.

Is this the right behavior?

Re: Problem with stash entry with untracked file

[Tim Visher]

Hi Nathaniel,

Notwithstanding the confusion between the --all and --include-untracked
flags, it'd probably be useful to you to drop out of emacs and hit the
shell and see what the git diff looks like there. It sounds like it might
contain stuff you're not expecting at which point the problem really isn't
in magit but in the state of git.

If, on the other hand, the git diff is different in the CLI and in Magit
then there's a problem here. :)
