builtin/branch: stop supporting the "--set-upstream" option
The '--set-upstream' option of branch was deprecated in b347d06b ("branch: deprecate --set-upstream and show help if we detect possible mistaken use", 2012-08-30) and has been planned for removal ever since. In order to prevent "--set-upstream" on a command line from being taken as an abbreviated form of "--set-upstream-to", explicitly catch "--set-upstream" option and die, instead of just removing it from the list of options. Before this change, an attempt to use "--set-upstream" resulted in: $ git branch * master $ git branch --set-upstream origin/master The --set-upstream flag is deprecated and will be removed. Consider using --track or --set-upstream-to Branch origin/master set up to track local branch master. $ echo $? 0 $ git branch * master origin/master With this change, the behaviour becomes like this: $ git branch * master $ git branch --set-upstream origin/master fatal: the '--set-upstream' option is no longer supported. Please use '--track' or '--set-upstream-to' instead. $ echo $? 128 $ git branch * master Signed-off-by: Kaartic Sivaraam <kaarticsivaraam91196@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
