From c005e98612c3ba896415cfa56df67ae8b240cc85 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Junio C Hamano Date: Tue, 3 Jul 2012 11:01:03 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] get_sha1(): fix error status regression In finish_object_disambiguation(), if the candidate hasn't been checked, there are two cases: - It is the first and only object that match the prefix; or - It replaced another object that matched the prefix but that object did not satisfy ds->fn() callback. And the former case we set ds->candidate_ok to true without doing anything else, while for the latter we check the candidate, which may set ds->candidate_ok to false. At this point in the code, ds->candidate_ok can be false only if this last-round check found that the candidate does not pass the check, because the state after update_candidates() returns cannot satisfy !ds->ambiguous && ds->candidate_exists && ds->candidate_checked and !ds->canidate_ok at the same time. Hence, when we execute this "return", we know we have seen more than one object that match the prefix (and none of them satisfied ds->fn), meaning that we should say "the short name is ambiguous", not "there is no object that matches the prefix". Noticed by Jeff King.
