From: Phillip Wood <redacted>
The action parameter is passed as the command name to
setup_unpack_trees_porcelain(). All but two cases pass either
"checkout" or "reset". The case that passes "reset --hard" should be
passing "reset" instead.
Describe how the parameter is meant to be used (presumably "this is
to record in the reflog", perhaps?); without such explanation, it is
hard to either agree or disagree with the claim that "reset --hard"
should be "reset".
Also state if this change is supposed to have any externally
observable effect.
Perhaps this improves what is shown in an error message by affecting
what setup_unpack_trees_porcelain() does? I am just guessing,
because the proposed log message is not telling. Please do not make
me (or other readers of "git log") guess.
Thanks.
