From 4e7434ff028c4280bed620f28fdbf9f4d77d77ce Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Theodore Ts'o Date: Fri, 2 Nov 2007 21:53:00 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] kbuild: fix scripts/setlocalversion to avoid erroneous -dirty tag If git's index file is out of date, and some files have been touched such that their timestamp doesn't what is in the index, "git diff-index HEAD" may show that a particular file is dirty, when in fact it really isn't. Running "git update-index" will update the index to avoid these false positives.
