Hi,

I ran into a git stash bug. I added a new project config file used by 
the IDE in a commit and later reverted the commit. But the same file 
again created by the IDE and now when I use git stash that file changes 
are also stashed. When I try stash pop, it complains that the file will 
be overwritten and aborts.

I did not expect this because I have reverted the commit adding the 
file. Is it intended behaviour? Am I missing something or is this a 
known bug and will be fixed in later releases? I am using Git version 
1.7.0.4.

Hi,

Sorry for the last msg. It seems the behavior happened in a different 
situation then what I described which now I can't reproduce.
