From 84679d470d577bcde1b6aa6af36c08a2d77b6e68 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Junio C Hamano Date: Fri, 18 Nov 2016 15:21:12 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] for-each-ref: do not segv with %(HEAD) on an unborn branch The code to flip between "*" and " " prefixes depending on what branch is checked out used in --format='%(HEAD)' did not consider that HEAD may resolve to an unborn branch and dereferenced a NULL. This will become a lot easier to trigger as the codepath will be used to reimplement "git branch [--list]" in the future.
