Thank you very much for your comments Eric. I will resubmit the patch.

Just a quick question

in this code

if (flag  BRANCH_CONFIG_VERBOSE) {
if (remote_is_branch  origin)
printf_ln(rebasing ?
  _(Branch %s set up to track remote branch %s from %s by
rebasing.) :
  _(Branch %s set up to track remote branch %s from %s.),
  local, shortname, origin);
else if (remote_is_branch  !origin)
printf_ln(rebasing ?
  _(Branch %s set up to track local branch %s by rebasing.) :
  _(Branch %s set up to track local branch %s.),
  local, shortname);
else if (!remote_is_branch  origin)
printf_ln(rebasing ?
  _(Branch %s set up to track remote ref %s by rebasing.) :
  _(Branch %s set up to track remote ref %s.),
  local, remote);
else if (!remote_is_branch  !origin)
printf_ln(rebasing ?
  _(Branch %s set up to track remote ref %s by rebasing.) :
  _(Branch %s set up to track remote ref %s.),
  local, remote);
else
die(BUG: impossible combination of %d and %p,
remote_is_branch, origin);
}

These local and remote variables are independent from the origin right?
So, If that the case couldn't we just use the bellow function


else if (!remote_is_branch)
printf_ln(rebasing ?
  _(Branch %s set up to track remote ref %s by rebasing.) :
  _(Branch %s set up to track remote ref %s.),
  local, remote);

instead of

else if (!remote_is_branch  origin)
printf_ln(rebasing ?
  _(Branch %s set up to track remote ref %s by rebasing.) :
  _(Branch %s set up to track remote ref %s.),
  local, remote);
else if (!remote_is_branch  !origin)
printf_ln(rebasing ?

 if (remote_is_branch  origin)
 printf_ln(rebasing ?
   _(Branch %s set up to track remote branch %s from %s by

   local, remote);
 else
 die(BUG: impossible combination of %d and %p,
 remote_is_branch, origin);
 }

This code does not exist in git.git. Somehow, the code you are
consulting has incorrectly substituted 'remote' for 'local' in the
strings of the (!remote_is_branch  !origin) case. Whether this is
due to a local modification you made or some some other reason, it is
leading you astray in your proposed changes and breaking your patches
so that they cannot be applied to git.git.

Probably easiest at this point would be for you to start from scratch
by making a new clone of git.git and examining branch.c as it actually
exists in the 'master' branch.

 These local and remote variables are independent from the origin right?
 So, If that the case couldn't we just use the bellow function


 else if (!remote_is_branch)
 printf_ln(rebasing ?
   _(Branch %s set up to track remote ref %s by rebasing.) :
   _(Branch %s set up to track remote ref %s.),
   local, remote);

 instead of

 else if (!remote_is_branch  origin)
 printf_ln(rebasing ?
   _(Branch %s set up to track remote ref %s by rebasing.) :
   _(Branch %s set up to track remote ref %s.),
   local, remote);
 else if (!remote_is_branch  !origin)
 printf_ln(rebasing ?
   _(Branch %s set up to track remote ref %s by rebasing.) :
   _(Branch %s set up to track remote ref %s.),
   local, remote);

Please, re-read Documentation/SubmittingPatches. In short, don't inline
patch headers and don't forget the sign-off.

 Subject: [PATCH] simplified the chain if() statements of
  install_brach_config() function in branch.c

Keep the subject line short (ideally 50 characters), and avoid past
tense. We usually use imperative (the patch asks the codebase to
refactor itself = simplify if statements  We usually prefix the
subject line with the place/subsystem where the change is done =
branch.c: simplify if 

 - else if (!remote_is_branch  origin)
 - printf_ln(rebasing ?

Is it me, or is (origin || !origin) a tautology?

Since it _is_ you, that question is a tautology because of its first
part already.  But the second one would be just as good.

(The second || should be a  in this sentence)

I'm not saying your rewrite is incorrect, but there's no reason to keep
(origin || !origin) in a logical formula.

The above is the same as (!remote_is_branch || !origin).  What you wrote
before is the same as (!remote_is_branch).

Maybe you should try copypaste from the expressions you are trying to
combine to make sure that what you start with makes sense.

 ((!remote_is_branch  origin) || (!remote_is_branch  !origin))

That is, indeed, perfectly equivalent to (!remote_is_branch).  If you
write

(!remote_is_branch  (origin || !origin))

then you will have people (and possibly also the compiler) loudly
wondering about what you are trying to say here.  The suspicion would be
that either this is a result of a typo or is supposed to be an
annoyingly obtuse replacement for a
/* TODO: treat origin and !origin differently */
kind of comment.
