[PATCH v4 1/7] add: include magic part of pathspec on --refresh error

From
Matheus Tavares <matheus.bernardino@usp.br>
Date
Apr 8, 2021, 20:41 UTC
Message-ID
<65f241b5c71a000a515b39c2159becb970d2cfdb.1617914011.git.matheus.bernardino@usp.br>
In-Reply-To
<cover.1617914011.git.matheus.bernardino@usp.br>

When `git add --refresh <pathspec>` doesn't find any matches for the given pathspec, it prints an error message using the `match` field of the `struct pathspec_item`. However, this field doesn't contain the magic part of the pathspec. Instead, let's use the `original` field.
