Pushing to remote branch while in detached head fails

[Matthew Treinish]

When in a detached head state pulled from a remote branch and then trying to use git review to push a change to that same branch fails.

For example doing:

$ git fetch
$ git checkout origin/milestone-proposed
$ git cherry-pick change
$ git review milestone-proposed

Fails with:

Had trouble running git log --color=auto --decorate --oneline milestone-proposed --not remotes/gerrit/milestone-proposed
fatal: ambiguous argument 'milestone-proposed': unknown revision or path not in the working tree.
Use '--' to separate paths from revisions

[Marcin Cieślak (saperski)]

We have this fixed in git master already (fixes for bug #1144800 as well as change Icd62c2ee359b95877097a57a3b517434d9f7f5e0).

Could not reproduce the problem as described above on git master.
