[PATCH v2 4/4] branch: show more information when HEAD is detached

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

 



This prints more helpful info when HEAD is detached: is it detached
because of bisect or rebase? What is the original branch name in those
cases? Is it detached because the user checks out a remote ref or a
tag (and which one)?
