But since we're here, maybe we can break this long message, remove the first full stop and leave the second part of the message as is, as a suggestion. Like we do in the previous message, above. For your consideration, I mean something like: --- a/builtin/branch.c +++ b/builtin/branch.c @@ -969,7 +969,8 @@ int cmd_branch(int argc, const char **argv, const char *prefix) "Did you mean to use: -a|-r --list <pattern>?")); if (track == BRANCH_TRACK_OVERRIDE) - die(_("the '--set-upstream' option is no longer supported.

Try: $ make && (cd t; ./t3200-branch.sh -vi) Or, as Junio has already suggested in another message: $ make test I have some unfinished work that you might find useful: https://lore.kernel.org/git/eb3c689e-efeb-4468-a10f-dd32bc0ee37b@xxxxxxxxx/ Thank you for working on this.
