Message-ID: <f46c52560906250535k6a0eb0a5ne05dc327760d14bd@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Ive been trying to use git.el in emacs

When I checked out an internal commit (I guess that's called a
detached head?) then git-status (in emacs) starts giving me

Branch:     fatal: ref HEAD is not a symbolic ref

This goes away when I do
git reset --hard <original-head-sha> --
git checkout master

[I'm not sure this the best way of restoring the head]

But my question is more about git in emacs. I gather that there are 3 options:
1. git.el
2. vc with git backend
3. dvc with git backend

Which is best/preferable?
Or is it best to stay with the command line?
