Hello people,

I get these errors when trying to add a new file to the directory. I pulled the latest version today, and the day before yesterdays version had the same problem (using git-pasky)

rhys@metatron:~/repo/learning.repo$ update-cache --add w1d4p1.c fatal: Unable to add w1d4p1.c to database rhys@metatron:~/repo/learning.repo$ git add w1d4p1.c fatal: Unable to add w1d4p1.c to database rhys@metatron:~/repo/learning.repo$ 

Any ideas?
Rhys
