git_index_update_all

Version:

Update all index entries to match the working directory

This method will fail in bare index instances.

This scans the existing index entries and synchronizes them with the working directory, deleting them if the corresponding working directory file no longer exists otherwise updating the information (including adding the latest version of file to the ODB if needed).

If you provide a callback function, it will be invoked on each matching item in the index immediately before it is updated (either refreshed or removed depending on working directory state). Return 0 to proceed with updating the item, > 0 to skip the item, and < 0 to abort the scan.
