Subject: Possible regression in master? (submodules without a "master" branch)
Date: Thu, 27 Mar 2014 15:21:49 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <CALKQrgeRJRoyC-UV7J98U1qQfqEFr_H1sEfAWd0GbstZagUisw@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
Hi,
I just found a failure to checkout a project with submodules where
there is no explicit submodule branch configuration, and the
submodules happen to not have a "master" branch:
git clone git://gitorious.org/qt/qt5.git qt5
cd qt5
git submodule init qtbase
git submodule update
In current master, the last command fails with the following output:
Cloning into 'qtbase'...
remote: Counting objects: 267400, done.
remote: Compressing objects: 100% (61070/61070), done.
remote: Total 267400 (delta 210431), reused 258876 (delta 202642)
Receiving objects: 100% (267400/267400), 136.23 MiB | 6.73 MiB/s, done.
Resolving deltas: 100% (210431/210431), done.
Checking connectivity... done.
error: pathspec 'origin/master' did not match any file(s) known to git.
Unable to setup cloned submodule 'qtbase'
Bisection points to 23d25e48f5ead73c9ce233986f90791abec9f1e8 (W.
Trevor King: submodule: explicit local branch creation in
module_clone). Looking at the patch, it seems to introduce an implicit
assumption on the submodule origin having a "master" branch. Is this
an intended change in behaviour?
...Johan
