BACKGROUND REFRESH
|
||||
------------------
|
||||
|
||||
By default, `git status` will automatically refresh the index, updating
|
||||
the cached stat information from the working tree and writing out the
|
||||
result. Writing out the updated index is an optimization that isn't
|
||||
strictly necessary (`status` computes the values for itself, but writing
|
||||
them out is just to save subsequent programs from repeating our
|
||||
computation). When `status` is run in the background, the lock held
|
||||
during the write may conflict with other simultaneous processes, causing
|
||||
them to fail. Scripts running `status` in the background should consider
|
||||
using `git --no-optional-locks status` (see linkgit:git[1] for details).
