If I remove the git index, then repoman doesn't handle it very well: > $ rm ../../.git/index > $ repoman commit > > RepoMan scours the neighborhood... > >>> Creating Manifest for /var/db/repos/gentoo/app-portage/repoman > ebuild.notadded 3 > app-portage/repoman/repoman-2.3.16.ebuild > app-portage/repoman/repoman-2.3.20.ebuild > app-portage/repoman/repoman-9999.ebuild > !!! The following files are in your local tree but are not added to the master > !!! tree. Please remove them from the local tree or add them to the master tree. > ./metadata.xml > ./repoman-2.3.16.ebuild > ./repoman-2.3.20.ebuild > ./repoman-9999.ebuild Possibly triggered by stale index, I've seen repoman update the copyright header for files that haven't changed.

This will prevent incorrect assumptions in cases where the index is missing or stale for some reason. Since repoman uses this information to decide when to update copyright header dates, this can prevent spurious copyright header updates.

I found myself wondering what had done the equivalent of a `git add` and it turns out the changes to address this issue might be the cause. Running `repoman full` now stages changes. Is there a way to turn this off?

Running > `repoman full` now stages changes. Is there a way to turn this off? There's currently no way to turn it off. Ideally, we'd find some sort of comprise that solves the test case shown in comment #0 without causing unnecessary modification to the index.
So I guess I should propose that it should only be run when repoman actually changes files itself (except Manifest?) - `repoman manifest` and repoman's testing features should not change the git index.
