Fix a segfault in the --set-upstream option added in 24bc1a12926 (pull, fetch: add --set-upstream option, 2019-08-19) added in v2.24.0. The code added there did not do the same checking we do for "git branch" itself since 8efb8899cfe (branch: segfault fixes and validation, 2013-02-23), which in turn fixed the same sort of segfault I'm fixing now in "git branch --set-upstream-to", see 6183d826ba6 (branch: introduce --set-upstream-to, 2012-08-20). The warning message I'm adding here is an amalgamation of the error added for "git branch" in 8efb8899cfe, and the error output install_branch_config() itself emits, i.e. it trims "refs/heads/" from the name and says "branch X on remote", not "branch refs/heads/X on remote". I think it would make more sense to simply die() here, but in the other checks for --set-upstream added in 24bc1a12926 we issue a warning() instead. Let's do the same here for consistency for now. There was an earlier submitted alternate way of fixing this in [1], due to that patch breaking threading with the original report at [2] I didn't notice it before authoring this version. I think the more detailed warning message here is better, and we should also have tests for this behavior. 1. https://lore.kernel.org/git/20210706162238.575988-1-clemens@xxxxxxxxxxxxx/ 2. https://lore.kernel.org/git/CAG6gW_uHhfNiHGQDgGmb1byMqBA7xa8kuH1mP-wAPEe5Tmi2Ew@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx/ Reported-by: Clemens Fruhwirth <clemens@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Reported-by: Jan Pokorný <poki@xxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Ævar Arnfjörð Bjarmason <avarab@xxxxxxxxx> --- A proposed replacement of cf/fetch-set-upstream-while-detached which as noted in What's Cooking has been languishing for a while. I changed the die() in my version to a warning() as suggested by Junio & updated the test and commit message accordingly.
