From cbce6c0be30cbaf8c39051f85006d679338a8ddc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Rafael Garcia-Suarez Date: Mon, 29 Sep 2008 18:04:41 +0200 Subject: Clarify commit error message for unmerged files Currently, trying to use git-commit with unmerged files in the index will show the message "Error building trees", which can be a bit obscure to the end user. This patch makes the error message clearer, and consistent with what git-write-tree reports in a similar situation. Signed-off-by: Rafael Garcia-Suarez Signed-off-by: Shawn O.
