[PATCH] Fix git-runstatus for repositories containing a file named HEAD

From: Rocco Rutte <hidden>
Date: 2016-08-11 19:46:07

The wt_status_print_updated() and wt_status_print_untracked() routines
call setup_revisions() with 'HEAD' being the reference to the tip of the
current branch. However, setup_revisions() gets confused if the branch
also contains a file named 'HEAD' resulting in a fatal error.

The fix is to append the '--' delimiter to the setup_revisions() call so
that it knows for sure that the 'HEAD' argument is a revision and not a
filename.

Ack. This is definitely a bug, and the patch fixes it. I wonder if it
would be slightly more readable to simply get rid of the argv nonsense.
Junio, please apply whichever you find more readable.

Instead, don't pass an argv to setup_revisions() at all; simply give it no
arguments, and make 'HEAD' the default revision.

Bug noticed by Rocco Rutte [off-list ref].
