Subject: [PATCH v2] contrib/subtree bugfix: Can't `add` annotated tag
Date: Tue, 13 May 2014 14:08:58 +1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1399954138-2807-1-git-send-email-nod.helm@gmail.com> (raw)

cmd_add_commit() is passed FETCH_HEAD by cmd_add_repository, which is
then rev-parsed into an object ID. However, if the user is fetching a
tag rather than a branch HEAD, such as by executing:

$ git subtree add -P oldGit https://github.com/git/git.git tags/v1.8.0

The object ID is a tag and is never peeled, and the git commit-tree call
(line 561) slaps us in the face because it doesn't handle tag IDs.

Because peeling a committish ID doesn't do anything if it's already a
commit, fix by peeling[1] the object ID before assigning it to $rev, as
per the patch.

[*1*]: Via peel_committish(), from git:git-sh-setup.sh, pre-existing
dependency of git-subtree.

I felt that defining revp would be a little more self-documenting than
using $rev^0.
