[PATCH v4 2/5] branch: make create_branch() always create a branch

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

 



create_branch() was formerly used to set tracking without creating a
branch. Since the previous commit replaces this use case with
setup_tracking(), we can simplify create_branch() so that it always
creates a branch.

Do this simplification, in particular:

* remove the special handling of BRANCH_TRACK_OVERRIDE because it is no
  longer used
* assert that clobber_head_ok can only be provided with force
* check that we're handling clobber_head_ok and force correctly by
  introducing tests for `git branch --force`
