From: Michael Haggerty Date: Fri, 03 Jun 2016 12:33:51 GMT Subject: [PATCH v2 11/13] for_each_reflog(): don't abort for bad references Message-ID: <2ef290baec6d7114e230ca09a3c59d09e6ade9aa.1464957077.git.mhagger@alum.mit.edu> In-Reply-To: If there is a file under "$GIT_DIR/logs" with no corresponding reference, the old code was emitting an error message, aborting the reflog iteration, and returning -1. But * None of the callers was checking the exit value * The callers all want to find all legitimate reflogs (sometimes for the purpose of determining object reachability!) and wouldn't benefit from a truncated iteration anyway. So instead, emit an error message and skip the "broken" reflog, but continue with the iteration.
