7,757 Pointspathspec error in git checkout
I am working on a local repo (created using git init). When I checkout a file using git checkout file_name 8ee751d I get the error error: pathspec '8ee751d' did not match any file(s) known to git.
I know the file exists in my working directory & was present in the 8ee751d commit as well.
