"repo sync" message upon detaching non-tracking heads is confusing #175

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
Affected Version: v1.12.16
Environment: Debian Testing

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. repo init && repo sync
2. create/checkout out a local non-tracking branch in one sub-project
3. repo sync produces the message "path/to/sub-project/: leaving branchname; 
does not track upstream"
4. user is confused where his branch has gone

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

give a more explicit message, like: "path/to/sub-project/: detaching HEAD from 
branch '%s'; does not track upstream"
