From 9b906af657d4ec0bc8fc01c5cbbbddb582a8cac6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Chris Torek Date: Mon, 20 Jul 2020 06:17:52 +0000 Subject: git-mv: improve error message for conflicted file 'git mv' has always complained about renaming a conflicted file, as it cannot handle multiple index entries for one file. However, the error message it uses has been the same as the one for an untracked file: fatal: not under version control, src=... which is patently wrong. Distinguish the two cases and add a test to make sure we produce the correct message.
