I doubt that. I think that was probably never configured, it just didn't show up when everything was working. I don't know what the buildfarm run, but perhaps it's trying to inject a merge commit there or something, and that's why it's failing on not having a name? It *should* certainly not be required to have a name in order to pull. > We should advise buildfarm owners how to fix that. > > I'm guessing the solution is to reset the 9.2 branch to a point prior to the commit and then pull again?
