Subject: patchtest/selftest: Ensure HEAD is attached before running attach tests case
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=a850252348096e5d6b0bb267e5108bf73de88e85;p=thirdparty%2Fopenembedded%2Fopenembedded-core-contrib.git

patchtest/selftest: Ensure HEAD is attached before running attach tests case

If the repo is in a detached HEAD state, create and check out a temporary branch
to attach HEAD. If the branch already exists, the error is raised via run_sh.

Add a check to verify that the Git state has not changed before and
after the test in the attached HEAD.
