[PATCH 3/3] git-p4: don't use name-rev to get current branch

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

 



git-p4 was using "git name-rev" to find out the current branch.

That is not safe, since if multiple branches or tags point at
the same revision, the result obtained might not be what is
expected.

Instead use "git symbolic-ref".
