A few questions about git-reset's reflog messages

[Ori Avtalion <ori@avtalion.name>]

Hi,

I noticed an inconsistency with the reset command's reflog messages.

The command:
    g reset <tree-ish>

Prints this reflog message:

    <tree-ish>: updating HEAD

Usually, actual lines from "git reflog" are:
640a027 HEAD@{0}: HEAD~1: updating HEAD
0657539 HEAD@{1}: 0657539: updating HEAD

This feels redundant and not very informative.

Is there any reason to print the tree-ish in the command? The 'raw' sha1
is already recorded in the reflog.

Why does the message not mention 'reset' in the beginning like (most?)
other commands?

I dug into builtin/reset.c to try and improve it, and came across a few
odd things, that I'd appreciate if someone would clarify:

* There is code to set a "updating ORIG_HEAD" reflog message, but I
can't trigger it. What use-case causes it?

* The part of the reflog message before the colon is composed by
args_to_str() which prints all of the arguments after the opts. This
seems redundant as the only form of 'reset' that updates the reflog is
one with a single '<commit>' argument after the options. What is there
for args_to_str to loop over?

Thanks,
Ori
