[PATCH 2/5] receive-pack: use in_merge_bases() for fast-forward check

From
Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
Date
Aug 27, 2012, 23:12 UTC
Message-ID
<1346109123-12357-3-git-send-email-gitster@pobox.com>
In-Reply-To
<1346109123-12357-1-git-send-email-gitster@pobox.com>

The original computed merge-base between the old commit and the new commit and checked if the old commit was a merge base between them, in order to make sure we are fast-forwarding.

Instead, call in_merge_bases(old, new) which does the same.
