You should be able to find out how it is used without running around all over the codebase but just the single file it appears in. > { > ... > case REF_STATUS_UPTODATE: > print_ref_status('=', "[up to date]", ref, > ref->peer_ref, NULL, > report, porcelain, summary_width); > break; > > Is this a precedent we should follow, or is print_one_push_report() > special in some way? The code path this function is called is triggerd when you go verbose: $ git push ../victim-00 v2.43.0-rc0~56:master Everything up-to-date $ git push -v ../victim-00 v2.43.0-rc0~56:master Pushing to ../victim-00 To ../victim-00 = [up to date] v2.43.0-rc0~56 -> master Do we want to make it possible to differentiate between the forced no-op and omitted no-op from "git push -v" output, or should users refrain from using "-v" when they want to be able to tell?
