Subject: git replace --graft does error checking too late
Date: Wed, 27 Mar 2019 11:22:40 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <mvmd0mcsjkf.fsf@suse.de> (raw)

When running `git replace --graft A B' where B is a non-commit (eg. a
tag) it displays an error, but creates the replace ref anyway.  I think
it should verify that B names a commit object before creating the ref.

Andreas.
