Hi Jeff,
I looked up at your patch again, because the code duplication gets more
annoying the more new corner cases I have to handle to get the push ref
correct in all cases (cf my cover letter to v6).
This implements what I was suggesting in
https://public-inbox.org/git/20200301220531.iuokzzdb5gruslrn@doriath/
Essentially in branch_get_push you call:
remote = remote_get(pushremote_for_branch(branch, NULL));
tracking_for_push_dest(remote, branch_get_push_remoteref(branch),
And as I pointed out, this is currently exactly what branch_get_push_1
does, except in the
PUSH_DEFAULT_UPSTREAM where it returns branch->merge[0]->dst.
But branch->merge is set up in `set_merge`, where we have:
ret->merge[i]->src = xstrdup(ret->merge_name[i]);
if (!remote_find_tracking(remote, ret->merge[i]) ||
strcmp(ret->remote_name, "."))
continue;
if (dwim_ref(ret->merge_name[i], strlen(ret->merge_name[i]),
&oid, &ref) == 1)
ret->merge[i]->dst = ref;
So in particular, when the remote is local, the current code path calls
dwim_ref. (I have no idea who set up ret->merge[i]->dst if the remote is
not local...)
So my question was: can dwim_ref(branch->merge[0]->src) be different from
tracking_for_push_dest(branch->merge[0]->src)?
So I admit I don't understand everything dwim_ref does, but there is at
least one case where the answer is yes: if we have a dangling symref,
dwim_ref which calls expand_ref in refs.c will detect it. So in the current
code, %(push) would show nothing, while with your patch it would show the
dangling symref.
Obviously we cannot allow a regression for this very common case ;)
