From 5f856dd47dacb30fb9f605b4b7e1fa577ada7d26 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Junio C Hamano Date: Fri, 19 Jan 2007 11:51:29 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] fix reflog entries for "git-branch" Even when -l is not given from the command line, the repository may have the configuration variable core.logallrefupdates set, or an old-timer might have done ": >.git/logs/refs/heads/new" before running "git branch new". In these cases, the code gave an uninitialized msg[] from the stack to be written out as the reflog message. This also passes a different message when '-f' option is used. Saying "git branch -f branch some-commit" is a moral equilvalent of doing "git-reset some-commit" while on the branch.
