What does this PR do?
Our current git unshallowing command is optimised, but it might fail under a different circumstances.
For example
git rev-parse HEAD
fails if the local HEAD is a commit that has not been pushed to the remote.We will add the following fallbacks:
$(git rev-parse --abbrev-ref --symbolic-full-name @{upstream})
- we try this first, but it might fail too if the CI is working on a detached HEAD or maybe branch tracking hasn’t been set upMotivation
Improve git unshallowing resilience
