Hello,

I found the following on the development version of git.el: saving
non-git-managed files in Emacs threw an error.

It is due to a simple error in the call to condition-case in a
recently added function, git-update-save-file.

I attached the patch for your convenience.

Regards,
Matthieu Lemerre

PS: Please Cc me when you ackwowledge; I'm not subscribed to the list.
As a matter of fact, I found the bug only because I didn't find git.el
for my distribution (debian) so I got directly from the development
version on the website.

I'm not sure what happened, but I didn't receive a patch with
your email.  Would you mind resending it to the list?  You may
also want to file a bug with your distribution to get the Emacs
bindings included.

Sure; the SMTP server of my ISP behaved weirdly yesterday and I had to
use one of these webmail applications.  This time it should be OK.




I'll also file a bug to debian, that's a good idea.
