Subject: [BUG] git add . after removing .git/ in a subdirectory triggers assertion failure
Date: Fri, 08 Jan 2016 12:33:06 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <vpqvb74fgr1.fsf@anie.imag.fr> (raw)

Hi,

No time to debug this for now, but I have a reproduction script:

mkdir test && cd test
git init sub   
cd sub/
touch foo && git add . && git commit -m"foo"
cd ..
git init
git add sub 
rm -fr sub/.git/
cd sub/
git add .

In short, sub used to be a submodule, but we removed the .git/ and tried
to "git add ." the result.

The last line triggers this:

git: pathspec.c:317: prefix_pathspec: Assertion `item->nowildcard_len <= item->len && item->prefix <= item->len' failed.

Cheers,
