why "Not currently on any branch" but no "HEAD detached"?

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

 



  probably a silly question (and probably related to using an old
version of git), but on a ubuntu 16.04.6 dev system, i used google's
"repo" tool to check out a bunch of git repos, and when i pop into
those git repos and run "git status", i see:

  # Not currently on any branch
  nothing to commit, working tree clean

i'm used to seeing "HEAD detached at <something>" ... is the above
just an older style of the same message, given that this system uses
git 2.9.2? or is there something else going on here?
