wow right on the button. yeah i have the "frus" folder in the root of my repository. i never knew that git checkout also searches the root of the repository like that. it appears i'm a fool who doesn't read documentation...
i learned something knew and can move this from the "bizarre index corruption" category to the "user error" category. thanks so much everyone!
