[PATCH] sha1_name.c: add an option to abort on ambiguous refs

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

 



There are cases when a warning on ambiguous refs may go unnoticed
(e.g. git-log filling up the whole screen). There are also cases when
people want to catch ambiguity early (e.g. it happens deep in some
script). In either case, aborting the program would accomplish it.
