Subject: [PATCH v4 8/9] remote: use the configured default branch name when appropriate
Date: Wed, 24 Jun 2020 14:46:35 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <0a7c0bdfda0bd7af284d317531d0f3985a4077e5.1593009996.git.gitgitgadget@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <pull.656.v4.git.1593009996.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
From: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de>
When guessing the default branch name of a remote, and there are no refs
to guess from, we want to go with the preference specified by the user
for the fall-back, i.e. the default name to be used for the initial
branch of new repositories (because as far as the user is concerned, a
remote that has no branches yet is a new repository).
At the same time, when talking to an older Git server that does not
report a symref for `HEAD` (but instead reports a commit hash), let's
try to guess the configured default branch name first. If it does not
match the reported commit hash, let's fall back to `master` as before.
