Re: [git-users] On bash doing git add '' some-existing-file troubles
From: Guilherme guibuf...@gmail.com The problem here is not the LF to CRLF conversion i know where that comes from. The problem is that doing git add '' CDD/CDD_Diag.c results in a message about another file which was clearly not my intention to add. When I experiment, git add '' seems to have the same effect as git add ., which is not surprsing. The problem is that you're invoking git-add with arguments whose effect is not specified. The solution is not to invoke git-add with a zero-character argument. Dale -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Git for human beings group.

Re: [git-users] On bash doing git add '' some-existing-file troubles
Hello Roman, Ok, so you and i have pretty much the same opinion. This behaviour is undocumented and i'd say dangerous. I will file a bug report. Thank you all for your help.

Hi, The problem here is not the LF to CRLF conversion i know where that comes from. The problem is that doing git add '' CDD/CDD_Diag.c results in a message about another file which was clearly not my intention to add.
