From: Andy Spencer Date: Sat, 25 Jan 2014 22:06:46 GMT Subject: [PATCH] tree_entry_interesting: match against all pathspecs Message-ID: <20140125220646.GA24370@pileus.org> The current basedir compare aborts early in order to avoid futile recursive searches. However, a match may still be found by another pathspec. This can cause an error while checking out files from a branch when using multiple pathspecs: $ git checkout master -- 'a/*.txt' 'b/*.txt' error: pathspec 'a/*.txt' did not match any file(s) known to git.
