Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@xxxxxxxxx> --- * This is meant for "maint" aka 1.5.4.X. Working with new stuff may be more fun, but we would need to first stabilize the 'maint' branch a bit further. Review comments and similar bugfix patches meant for 'maint' branch are very much appreciated. builtin-commit.c | 2 +- t/t7501-commit.sh | 18 ++++++++++++++++++ 2 files changed, 19 insertions(+), 1 deletions(-) diff --git a/builtin-commit.c b/builtin-commit.c index d8deb1a..c787bed 100644 --- a/builtin-commit.c +++ b/builtin-commit.c @@ -601,7 +601,7 @@ static int parse_and_validate_options(int argc, const char *argv[], if (get_sha1(use_message, sha1)) die("could not lookup commit %s", use_message); - commit = lookup_commit(sha1); + commit = lookup_commit_reference(sha1); if (!commit || parse_commit(commit)) die("could not parse commit %s", use_message); diff --git a/t/t7501-commit.sh b/t/t7501-commit.sh index d1a415a..55043d1 100755 --- a/t/t7501-commit.sh +++ b/t/t7501-commit.sh @@ -327,4 +327,22 @@ test_expect_success 'amend using the message from another commit' ' ' +test_expect_success 'amend using the message from a commit named with tag' ' + + git reset --hard && + test_tick && + git commit --allow-empty -m "old commit" && + old=$(git rev-parse --verify HEAD) && + git tag -a -m "tag on old" tagged-old HEAD && + test_tick && + git commit --allow-empty -m "new commit" && + new=$(git rev-parse --verify HEAD) && + test_tick && + git commit --allow-empty --amend -C tagged-old && + git show --pretty="format:%ad %s" "$old" >expected && + git show --pretty="format:%ad %s" HEAD >actual && + diff -u expected actual + +' + test_done -- 1.5.4.2.g41ac4 - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
