Subject: [PATCH b4 v2 33/44] tests: cover create_review_branch cleaning up a half-built branch
Date: Fri, 31 Jul 2026 23:59:14 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260731-work-b4-editor-branch-guard-v2-33-243fd19d322d@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260731-work-b4-editor-branch-guard-v2-0-243fd19d322d@kernel.org>
Both starting points with the patch range failing to read: from a
branch and from a detached HEAD. The detached case starts at the tip
rather than the base, so restoring to the base would not pass.
