Has anyone else noticed false positives coming from the orphan check? It is warning me about commits that are clearly on master. Here is an example, where I checkout master~2 and then switch back to master. It somehow thinks that master~2 is orphaned, when master~2 is by definition in the commit chain leading to master. The repo is tiny, so anyone can try and reproduce this. (I've done so on v1.7.9 and v1.7.11, on two different machines). git://git.yoctoproject.org/yocto-kernel-tools.git Paul. ------------- paul@foo:~/git/yocto-kernel-tools$ git checkout master~2 Note: checking out 'master~2'. You are in 'detached HEAD' state. You can look around, make experimental changes and commit them, and you can discard any commits you make in this state without impacting any branches by performing another checkout. If you want to create a new branch to retain commits you create, you may do so (now or later) by using -b with the checkout command again. Example: git checkout -b new_branch_name HEAD is now at e693754... kgit-checkpoint: fix verify_branch variable name typo paul@foo:~/git/yocto-kernel-tools$ git checkout master Warning: you are leaving 38 commits behind, not connected to any of your branches: e693754 kgit-checkpoint: fix verify_branch variable name typo ee67a7b kgit-config-cleaner: fix redefintion processing 579b1ba meta: support flexible meta branch naming 4673bdb scc: allow kconf fragment searching ... and 34 more. If you want to keep them by creating a new branch, this may be a good time to do so with: git branch new_branch_name e6937544e030637cec029edee34737846a036ece Switched to branch 'master' paul@foo:~/git/yocto-kernel-tools$ git branch --contains e6937544e030637cec029edee34737846a036ece * master paul@foo:~/git/yocto-kernel-tools$ git --version git version 1.7.11.1 paul@foo:~/git/yocto-kernel-tools$ cat .git/config [core] repositoryformatversion = 0 filemode = true bare = false logallrefupdates = true [remote "origin"] fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/* url = git://git.yoctoproject.org/yocto-kernel-tools.git [branch "master"] remote = origin merge = refs/heads/master paul@foo:~/git/yocto-kernel-tools$ --------------- -- 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
