This is emacs 23 using the new 'updated-for-modern-dvcs' vc
I see a mode line saying (note the colon)
Git:master
In the info on vc (Version control and the mode line) the emacs manual says:
The character between the back-end name and the revision ID
indicates the version control status of the file. `-' means that the
work file is not locked (if locking is in use), or not modified (if
locking is not in use). `:' indicates that the file is locked, or that
it is modified.
However at the shell a git status says
# On branch master
nothing to commit (working directory clean)
If I close and reopen the file the colon becomes a -
But I get a message:
`working-revision' not found: using the old `workfile-version' instead.
Just updating my own question:
when I do a C-x v v (vc-next-action)
which is supposed to be the most basic operation for checking in a file I get
Wrong type argument: stringp, nil
So vc can be assumed to be a broken I guess?

Hm, please do `M-x toggle-debug-on-error', reproduce the error and poste
the backtrace.
