From 85e2233f982f760d0e731b1258da2580834d8027 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Matthieu Moy Date: Mon, 18 Jan 2010 22:44:12 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] branch: warn and refuse to set a branch as a tracking branch of itself. Previous patch allows commands like "git branch --set-upstream foo foo", which doesn't make much sense. Warn the user and don't change the configuration in this case. Don't die to let the caller finish its job in such case.
