Hi all,

I'm getting this error from most cogito commands in my repository
(created with cg-init):

$ cg status
Heads:

? patches/series
fatal: ambiguous argument '': unknown revision or path not in the
working tree.
Use '--' to separate paths from revisions
===

I already have some commits and history in there that I'd prefer not to
loose. When I clone this repository the error disappears but I'd prefer
to fix it in place.

Any ideas?

Using cogito-0.17 and git-1.4.0

Thanks

Michal

You need to upgrade to cogito-0.17.2 with git-1.4.0

Cheers,
