Subject: [PATCH v2 2/2] builtin/branch: remove redundant check for HEAD
Date: Tue, 14 Nov 2017 17:12:59 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20171114114259.8937-2-kaartic.sivaraam@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20171114114259.8937-1-kaartic.sivaraam@gmail.com>

The lower level code has been made to handle this case for the
sake of consistency. This has made this check redundant.

So, remove the redundant check.
