It does warn you it will erase the file when you discard...

Go read the actual thread. There was a bug someone found that files you have in there that aren't even associated with git still get deleted. I'm not entirely convinced this was the poster's fault.

I did read the whole thread. I also referenced the resolution further down the comment thread.

They've adjusted the error message to be abundantly clear after the fact.
