From 51a94af845cb3f797abd638478834721d7295af7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Junio C Hamano Date: Thu, 16 Oct 2008 23:37:44 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] Fix "checkout --track -b newbranch" on detached HEAD The test to make sure that checkout fails when --track was asked for and we cannot set up tracking information in t7201 was wrong, and it turns out that the implementation for that feature itself was buggy. This fixes it.
