Differential D20421
When observing a repository in Git, just "fetch <url>" without worrying about the "origin" remote Authored by epriestley on Apr 14 2019, 7:24 PM. Tags None Referenced Files

Details Depends on D20420. Ref T13277. We currently spend substantial effort trying to detect and correct the URL of the "origin" remote in Git repositories. I believe this is unnecessary, and we can always git fetch <url> ... to get the desired result instead of git muck-with-origin + git fetch origin .... We already do this in the more recent parts of the codebase (e.g., intracluster sync) and it works correctly in every case I'm aware of.

Event TimelineComment Actions It looks like this does actually cause some issues with very old non-bare repositories. I'll follow up in T13280. I'm likely to move toward "users should convert these to bare repositories" over retaining non-bare support, since it's been at least like 4-5 years since we created non-bare repositories. |
