Subject: [PATCH 0/2] branch/push: suggest intended form when remote/branch slip given
Date: Fri, 12 Jun 2026 11:10:17 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <pull.2331.git.git.1781262619.gitgitgadget@gmail.com> (raw)
When the repository or upstream argument is a slip like "origin/main" or
"origin main", suggest the intended "git push origin main" or "git branch
--set-upstream-to=origin/main" form instead of failing with an unrelated
error.
Harald Nordgren (2):
branch: suggest <remote>/<branch> on upstream slip
push: suggest <remote> <branch> for a slash slip
