Subject: Regression in 'git branch -m'?
Date: Thu, 5 Oct 2017 19:25:52 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20171005172552.GA11497@inner.h.apk.li> (raw)
Hi everybody,
I got something that looks like a regression somewhere since 2.11.
This script
set -xe
rm -rf repo
git init repo
cd repo
git commit -m nix --allow-empty
git branch -m master/master
git rev-parse HEAD
git branch
git status
causes .git/HEAD to still contain 'ref: refs/heads/master' and to fail
in the rev-parse step with
+ git rev-parse HEAD
HEAD
fatal: ambiguous argument 'HEAD': unknown revision or path not in the working tree.
Use '--' to separate paths from revisions, like this:
'git <command> [<revision>...] -- [<file>...]'
This is with 2.15.0.rc0; with 2.11.0 (and 2.11.0.356.gffac48d09) it still works.
I'm going to do a bisect on this as battery permits.
- Andreas
