Re: [PATCH] read-tree: abort if no trees are given

Am 9/10/2010 12:06, schrieb Jan Krüger:

Currently, read-tree silently accepts an invocation without any
tree-ishs given and simply clobbers the index in that case. This
contradicts the usage synopsis and it's also probably not what anyone
would want to happen. So, instead, abort with a fatal error.

See

and the discussion that ensued; perhaps intersting is

(where Junio suggest to make this a warning for now).
