From 6355e505bacf0a12a5de77bcd0c1198e74ad340b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Brandon Casey Date: Mon, 27 Sep 2010 12:29:45 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] builtin/revert.c: don't dereference a NULL pointer cherry-pick will segfault when transplanting a root commit if the --ff option is used. This happens because the "parent" pointer is set to NULL when the commit being cherry-picked has no parents. Later, when "parent" is dereferenced, the cherry-pick segfaults. Fix this by checking whether "parent" is NULL before dereferencing it and add a test for this case of cherry-picking a root commit with --ff.
