This creates a handy alias "-" for the remote of the current branch (or origin if no such remote exists), which can be used in both push, pull, fetch and remote to make many tasks easier. E.g.: git push - HEAD : push the current branch git remote prune - : prune the current remote git fetch - next : get the next branch from the current remote Signed-off-by: Finn Arne Gangstad <finnag@xxxxxxx> --- remote.c | 2 +- 1 files changed, 1 insertions(+), 1 deletions(-) diff --git a/remote.c b/remote.c index d7079c6..3a6d002 100644 --- a/remote.c +++ b/remote.c @@ -645,7 +645,7 @@ struct remote *remote_get(const char *name) struct remote *ret; read_config(); - if (!name) + if (!name || !strcmp(name, "-")) name = default_remote_name; ret = make_remote(name, 0); if (valid_remote_nick(name)) { -- 1.6.2.105.g6ff1f.dirty -- 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
