2013-05-16	strbuf_branchname(): do not double-expand @{-1}~22	Junio C Hamano	1	-2/+13
	If you were on 'frotz' branch before you checked out your current branch, "git merge @{-1}~22" means the same as "git merge frotz~22". The strbuf_branchname() function, when interpret_branch_name() gives up resolving "@{-1}~22" fully, returns "frotz" and tells the caller that it only resolved "@{-1}" part of the input, mistakes this as a total failure, and appends the whole thing to the result, yielding "frotz@{-1}~22", which does not make any sense. Inspect the return value from interpret_branch_name() a bit more carefully. When it errored out without consuming anything, we will get -1 and we should return the whole thing. Otherwise, we should append the remainder (i.e. "~22" in the earlier example) to the partially resolved name (i.e. "frotz"). The test suite adds enough number of checkout to make @{-12} in the last test in t0100 that tried to check "we haven't flipped branches that many times" error case succeed; raise the number to a hundred.

2009-02-13	Teach @{-1} to git merge	Junio C Hamano	1	-0/+23
	1.6.2 will have @{-1} syntax advertised as "usable anywhere you can use a branch name". However, "git merge @{-1}" did not work. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2009-02-13	Teach the "@{-1} syntax to "git branch"	Junio C Hamano	1	-0/+26
	This teaches the new "@{-1} syntax to refer to the previous branch to "git branch". After looking at somebody's faulty patch series on a topic branch too long, if you decide it is not worth merging, you can just say: $ git checkout master $ git branch -D @{-1} to get rid of it without having to type the name of the topic you now hate so much for wasting a lot of your time.
