The test is correct, but the description > should read "checkout reports switch to branch", not "...detached HEAD". Hmm. One other thing to note on these ambiguity tests. Apparently we did already have a test for this in t7201 (which should perhaps be renamed into the t20* area with the other checkout tests), but it was passing. The problem is that the current behavior is way more broken than just "accidentally choose tag over branch". It actually writes the branch ref into HEAD, but checks out the tree from the tag! The test in 7201 only checks the former, but our new test checked the latter. Probably we should be checking both, just to be sure (and yes, with your patch it does the right thing): diff --git a/t/t2019-checkout-amiguous-ref.sh b/t/t2019-checkout-amiguous-ref.sh index e2b330b..606081b 100755 --- a/t/t2019-checkout-amiguous-ref.sh +++ b/t/t2019-checkout-amiguous-ref.sh @@ -22,6 +22,9 @@ test_expect_success 'checkout produces ambiguity warning' ' ' test_expect_success 'checkout chooses branch over tag' ' + echo refs/heads/ambiguity >expect && + git symbolic-ref HEAD >actual && + test_cmp expect actual && echo branch >expect && test_cmp expect file ' @@ -41,6 +44,9 @@ test_expect_success VAGUENESS_SUCCESS 'checkout produces ambiguity warning' ' ' test_expect_success VAGUENESS_SUCCESS 'checkout chooses branch over tag' ' + echo refs/heads/vagueness >expect && + git symbolic-ref HEAD >actual && + test_cmp expect actual && echo branch >expect && test_cmp expect file ' -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
