I think this is more complex than this. To give a bit more context, the
code you're changing is:
comment_for_reflog start
if test ! -z "$switch_to"
then
GIT_REFLOG_ACTION="$GIT_REFLOG_ACTION: checkout $switch_to"
output git checkout "$switch_to" -- ||
die "Could not checkout $switch_to"
comment_for_reflog start
fi
The GIT_REFLOG_ACTION= changes the reflog message for the git checkout
command.
Since we use the construct
GIT_REFLOG_ACTION="..." shell_function
the shell may keep $GIT_REFLOG_ACTION set after calling the function (I
don't remember what POSIX says, but dash does it:
$ f () { echo $X; }
$ X=42 f
42
$ echo $X
42
$ X=y f
y
$ echo $X
y
).
So, one needs to reset $GIT_REFLOG_ACTION to what it used to be if is it
to be used later. However, it seems to me that the "comment_for_reflog
start" is used only for this checkout command. If so, there's no need
for the "comment_for_reflog start" before the if statement either.
In any case, this should be clarified with at least a comment in the
code.
