Let git-checkout always drop any detached head
We used to refuse leaving a detached HEAD when it wasn't matching an existing ref so not to lose any commit that might have been performed while not on any branch (unless -f was provided). But this protection was completely bogus since it was still possible to move to HEAD^ while still remaining detached but losing the last commit anyway if there was one. Now that we have a proper reflog for HEAD it is best to simply remove that bogus (and admitedly annoying) protection and simply display the last HEAD position instead. If one wants to recover a lost detached state then it can be retrieved from the HEAD reflog. Signed-off-by: Nicolas Pitre <nico@cam.org> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <junkio@cox.net>
