Read current remote name (defaulting to origin)

[mcdado]

Hey, since i'm seeing the following dreaded error message in the Output panel

[...]
git remote get-url origin  (completed in 0.011s)
fatal: No such remote 'origin'

This happens when there are no remotes called origin (am I the only way that gives descriptive names to remotes?). I tried to look into the issue, and came up with this pull request. It is in no way tested, since I don't know how to "compile" an extension for testing. So take it as it is and fix it in case, or tell me what I need to change.

Fixes #281

Still a problem here. In my case it needs to execute git remote get-url origin instead it is executing git remote get-url remotes/origin

[mcdado]

I just checked, and as I mentioned in the comment of this PR, my change was totally untested 😅

#330 should fix it though…

[bhack]

I think that #330 it is already in a release. Right? So it is not fixed cause I've an updated version of the plugin.

[mcdado]

It's released to the releases page but it's not released to the extension marketplace from what I can see… I also checked for updates in VS Code and I'm still on 0.4.3

[bhack]

Ok thanks so we need to wait for the Marketplace push.

For what it's worth, I am on 0.4.4 and still have his error.

@ludaavics what output do you get when entering the below command?

git status --porcelain=v1 -b --untracked-files=no

[ludaavics]

OK after some playing around, here is how to replicate:

# on dev branch -- no error
$ git status --porcelain=v1 -b --untracked-files=no
## dev...github/dev

# create a new branch -- errors out
$ git checkout -b foo
$ git status --porcelain=v1 -b --untracked-files=no
## foo

# push new branch -- still errors out
$ git push github foo
$ git status --porcelain=v1 -b --untracked-files=no
## foo

# set upstream -- back to no error
$ git push --set-upstream github foo
$ git status --porcelain=v1 -b --untracked-files=no
## foo...github/foo
