Subject: [PATCH 0/3] checkout: allow -b/-B to work on a merge base
Date: Thu, 25 Apr 2019 14:10:34 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <cover.1556226502.git.liu.denton@gmail.com> (raw)

I noticed earlier that running

	$ git checkout -b test master...

would result in the following failure message:

	fatal: Not a valid object name: 'master...'.

I believe that this is a bug, so this patchset will allow this to succeed.

  t2018: cleanup in current test
  t2018: demonstrate checkout -b merge base bug
  checkout: allow -b/-B to work on a merge base
