From: Marc Branchaud <redacted> get_default_remote() tries to use the checked-out branch's 'remote' config value to figure out the remote's name. This fails if there is no currently checked-out branch (i.e. HEAD is detached) or if the checked-out branch doesn't track a remote. In these cases and the function would just fall back to "origin". Instead, let's use the first remote listed in the configuration, and fall back to "origin" only if we don't find any configured remotes. Prior to this change, git would fail to initialize a relative-path submodule if the super-repo was on a detached HEAD and it had no remote named "origin". Signed-off-by: Marc Branchaud <redacted> --- Our build system likes to use detached HEADs, so we got tripped up when we started using relative submodule URLs. (I'm not sure about the portability of my change, or if I should wrap it to 80 columns...) git-parse-remote.sh | 1 + t/t7400-submodule-basic.sh | 22 ++++++++++++++++++++++ 2 files changed, 23 insertions(+)
