From: Junio C Hamano Date: Sun, 25 Nov 2007 18:34:27 GMT Subject: [PATCH] git-checkout: describe detached head correctly Message-ID: <7vprxymax8.fsf@gitster.siamese.dyndns.org> When you have a file called HEAD in the work tree, the code to report where the HEAD is at when "git checkout $commit^0" is done triggered unnecessary ambiguity checking. Explicitly mark the command line with "--" and make it clear that we are talking about a revision.
