[pnfs] git error with latest tree

I think it's trying to tell you that the reported file
is "dirty" i.e. changed comparing to the version its
supposed to be.  Try running git-diff to see what changed.
Anyhow you can either force the checkout (with git checkout -f)
or run git reset --hard first.

Subject: [pnfs] git error with latest tree
 
Last night I pulled over a new pNFS tree with the following:
$ git clone git://git.linux-nfs.org/projects/bhalevy/linux-pnfs.git

This morning I attempted to checkout the latest block layout driver  
and received ...
$ git checkout -b pnfs-block origin/pnfs-block
fatal: Entry 'net/ipv4/netfilter/ipt_ECN.c' not uptodate. Cannot merge.

Does anyone know what git is trying to tell me?
