Details

I have a stack of patches on my local branch.
Sometimes, I want to submit a single revision. So, I:

  1. Check out that revision
  2. moz-phab -s

However, moz-phab complains that:

$ moz-phab -s
fatal: ref HEAD is not a symbolic ref
Git failed to read the branch name.
The repository is in a detached HEAD state.
You need to run the *git checkout <branch-name>* command.

I feel like moz-phab should be able to submit standalone commits (or, if a branch is needed, it should create a temporary one automatically).

Interestingly, moz-phab -s <rev> does work.
So, I'm guessing that the "submit current stack" logic is what is failing when it can't find a branch.
