Question

On a new repo clone, git filter-branch complains that I have unstaged changes, e.g.

$ git filter-branch --subdirectory-filter plugins/hypervisors/hyperv -- --all 
Cannot rewrite branches: You have unstaged changes.

However, these git status says that there are no changes:

$ git status
# On branch master
nothing to commit (working directory clean)

Where do I look to find out what the changes are?

Was it helpful?

Solution

Resolved by wiping the stash, e.g.

git stash drop

Source

Would be interesting to know where the changes to the stash came from.
