From 5c29f19cdada762e75939a946df21b44d48d6fff Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johannes Schindelin Date: Sat, 19 Dec 2020 14:55:59 +0000 Subject: checkout -p: handle tree arguments correctly again This fixes a segmentation fault. The bug is caused by dereferencing `new_branch_info->commit` when it is `NULL`, which is the case when the tree-ish argument is actually a tree, not a commit-ish. This was introduced in 5602b500c3c (builtin/checkout: fix `git checkout -p HEAD...` bug, 2020-10-07), where we tried to ensure that the special tree-ish `HEAD...` is handled correctly.
