From 0b294c0abf00a9cf7468e0ea62722ae23b0816cc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jeff King Date: Tue, 8 Jul 2008 00:08:02 -0400 Subject: make deleting a missing ref more quiet If git attempts to delete a ref, but the unlink of the ref file fails, we print a message to stderr. This is usually a good thing, but if the error is ENOENT, then it indicates that the ref has _already_ been deleted. And since that's our goal, it doesn't make sense to complain to the user. This harmonizes the error reporting behavior for the unpacked and packed cases; the packed case already printed nothing on ENOENT, but the unpacked printed unconditionally. Additionally, send-pack would, when deleting the tracking ref corresponding to a remote delete, print "Failed to delete" on any failure. This can be a misleading message, since we actually _did_ delete at the remote side, but we failed to delete locally. Rather than make the message more precise, let's just eliminate it entirely; the delete_ref routine already takes care of printing out a much more specific message about what went wrong.
