Hi,

Is there a "p4 revert -a" equivalent in git or should I whip up a script using git-diff-index and git-update-index?

That is I want to git-update-index --refresh for all files whose inode may have changed but the actual file data has not (i.e. git-diff-index is empty).

Thanks,
   Luben

That's what "git-update-index --refresh" does, unless I am misreading what you say you want.

	$ git checkout master
        $ touch *.c
	$ git diff-index HEAD ;# tons of changes
        $ git update-index --refresh
	$ git diff-index HEAD ;# no changes

Ok, thanks. I wasn't sure if I had to specify the file names on the command line of "git-update-index --refresh". It looks like I don't have to, so this is a perfect equivalent.

Thanks,
