Moving untracked files about git-sh HOT 6 CLOSED

Yeah. This is super annoying. It's because mv is using git-mv. The only way around it is to use command mv file1 file2. You may also be able to realias mv to command mv but I haven't tried.

I've considered removing the mv alias due to the confusion here.

from git-sh.

Solution would be to test if file is tracked or not and act accordingly. As a workaround you can use noop

: && mv file1 file2.

from git-sh.

The following lines in my .gitshrc make mv/rm a bit more sane, without any changes to git-sh itself:

unalias mv
unalias rm
alias gmv='git mv'
alias grm='git rm'

from git-sh.

Thanks for that!

There's a note about this in the README. Closing.

I've worked up a couple bash functions for .gitshrc that will route tracked files to git mv/rm and untracked files to their bash counterparts.
