[PATCH v2] commit: allow {--amend|-c foo} when {HEAD|foo} has empty message

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Because --amend (-c foo) internally load the message from HEAD (foo,
resp.) using the same code paths as -C, they erroneously refuse to
work at all when the message of HEAD (foo) is empty.

Remove the corresponding check under --amend and -c.

None of this behavior was ever tested (not even for -C empty_message),
so we add a whole batch of new tests.

Like the last version, plus Peff's guard for the invalid commit
format.  I also received Lazar (starlay) 's identity for the
attribution.
