parenthelp: add help_unknown_ref() (diff)
downloadtgif-f3f8af0e54a31ffed242dc36482f82393f596ee5.tar.xz
merge: use help_unknown_ref()
Use help.c:help_unknown_ref() instead of die() to provide a friendlier error message before exiting, when one of the refs specified in a merge is unknown. Signed-off-by: Vikrant Varma <vikrant.varma94@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
