From 323e00fd46afb9293b25ee85f061ce11a2f95ca6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alexandre Julliard Date: Sat, 8 Nov 2008 13:03:59 +0100 Subject: checkout: Don't crash when switching away from an invalid branch. When using alternates, it is possible for HEAD to end up pointing to an invalid commit. git checkout should be able to recover from that situation without crashing.
