I think most of the places we try to enclose these literals inside
quotes, so I'd squash in a patch to make this:
die(_("'%s' cannot be used with updating paths"), "--track");
and update others to match.
+ if (new->name && !new->commit)
+ die(_("Cannot switch branch to a non-commit '%s'."),
+ new->name);This is one of the only few places that end a sentence with a full-stop.
+ /* Try to give more helpful suggestion, new_branch && + argc > 1 will be caught later */
Style;
+ if (opts.new_branch && argc == 1)
+ die(_("Cannot update paths and switch to branch '%s' at the same time.\n"
+ "Did you intend to checkout '%s' which can not be resolved as commit?"),
+ opts.new_branch, argv[0]);
if (opts.force_detach)
die(_("git checkout: --detach does not take a path argument"));
I tried this codepath and the message left me feeling uneasy. I'd do:
die(_("git checkout: --detach does not take a path argument '%s'"),
argv[0]);
Other than these, I didn't find anything obviously wrong with my
final review before merging to 'next', so I'll merge it soonish.
Thanks.
