Severity: important
This upload breaks the behaviour of
git branch -M master
which is supposed to overwrite the master branch if it exists: from git help
branch:
With a -m or -M option, <oldbranch> will be renamed to <newbranch>. If
<oldbranch> had a corresponding reflog, it is renamed to match
<newbranch>, and a reflog entry is created to remember the branch
renaming. If <newbranch> exists, -M must be used to force the rename to
happen.
to reproduce (as run by a buildbot) do e.g.,
mkdir foo && cd foo
git init
/usr/bin/git fetch -t git://github.com/shogun-toolbox/shogun.git +master
/usr/bin/git reset --hard 72d1bdeb46bf0c63c9d59c940930f2dba1bb6111
git branch -M master
