[PATCH v5 4/5] ref-filter: remove unnecessary else clause

From: Karthik Nayak <hidden>
Date: 2025-07-15 11:28:37
Subsystem: the rest · Maintainer: Linus Torvalds

In 'ref-filter.c', there is an 'else' clause within `do_filter_refs()`.
This is unnecessary since the 'if' clause calls `die()`, which would
exit the program. So let's remove the unnecessary 'else' clause. This
improves readability since the indentation is also reduced and flow is
simpler.
