    clone: Fix error message for reference repository · 0658569e
    Aaron Schrab 提交于
    Do not report that an argument to clone's --reference option is not a
    local directory.  Nothing checks for the existence or type of the path
    as supplied by the user; checks are only done for particular contents of
    the supposed directory, so we have no way to know the status of the
    supplied path.  Telling the user that a directory doesn't exist when
    that isn't actually known may lead him or her on the wrong path to
    finding the problem.
    
    Instead just state that the entered path is not a local repository which
    is really all that is known about it.  It could be more helpful to state
    the actual paths which were checked, but I believe that giving a good
    description of that would be too verbose for a simple error message and
    would be too dependent on implementation details.
