From: Phillip Wood <phillip.wood@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Use move_to_original_branch() when reattaching HEAD after a fast-forward rather than open coding a copy of that code. move_to_original_branch() does not call reset_head() if head_name is NULL but there should be no user visible changes even though we currently call reset_head() in that case. The reason for this is that the reset_head() call does not add a message to the reflog because we're not changing the commit that HEAD points to and so lock_ref_for_update() elides the update. When head_name is not NULL then reset_head() behaves like "git symbolic-ref" and so the reflog is updated. Note that the removal of "strbuf_release(&msg)" is safe as there is an identical call just above this hunk which can be seen by viewing the diff with -U6.
