Yes, the way to store this information changed. But by now, it [the
$orig_head which caused the havoc] is completely informational anyway
and git pull is completely rewritten not to need it for the merging
itself; just for the fancy stuff like showing diff-tree.

If I go for the pull/update change (or even if I don't), I might drop
this information anyway; I basically needed it only before merge-base
was around anyway, so that I would know what tree to use as the merge
base.

That's the case with the latest git-pasky night version.

That's not the case.  This tree has been sitting around for about 6 days
now, and every day at 7am it gets a git pull.  One thing which did change
was the version of git installed, which now has this "fast forwarding"
feature in.

Maybe gitmerge.sh should check whether it needs to do anything before
attempting to do something?

This means nothing more than you pulled your tracked branch for the
first time, but before you already had the latest copy; this wouldn't
have happened with subsequent pulls, and it was fixed some time ago - it
would be really nice if you could try the new pull and merge.

It is harmless anyway. It got confused and tried to do "zero-length fast
forward", which git diff complained about, but it couldn't do any harm
(I hope).

More git pull problems

2005-04-19 Thread Russell King
My automatic pull this morning produced the following messages, which
seem to indicate that something's up with git pull now.
