From 3a42980f9e5ecc2b74c538109d4007c630881f1c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Karthik Nayak Date: Tue, 10 Jan 2017 14:19:47 +0530 Subject: ref-filter: Do not abruptly die when using the 'lstrip=' option Currently when we use the 'lstrip=' option, if 'N' is greater than the number of components available in the refname, we abruptly end program execution by calling die(). This behavior is undesired since a single refname with few components could end program execution. To avoid this, return an empty string whenever the value 'N' is greater than the number of components available, instead of calling die().
