upload-pack: fix ambiguous error message
upload-pack.c takes any --shallow-exclude argument(s) from clone/fetch/etc. and passes them through expand_ref(). If it does not get back exactly one ref from the call to expand_ref(), it will die with the following error: fatal: git upload-pack: ambiguous deepen-not: %s Given that the documentation suggests to users that --shallow-exclude accepts a revision rather than a ref (which will be corrected in a subsequent commit), users may try to pass a revision. In such a case, expand_ref() will return 0 matches, but the error message we print will be misleading since "ambiguous" suggests there are multiple matches. Provide a clearer error message for such a case. Signed-off-by: Elijah Newren <newren@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
