Subject: [PATCH v5 09/14] replay: remove HEAD related sanity check

From: Christian Couder <[email-masked]>
Date: Tue, 10 Oct 2023 14:38:42 +0200

From: Elijah Newren <[email-masked]>

We want replay to be a command that can be used on the server side on
any branch, not just the current one, so we are going to stop updating
HEAD in a future commit.

A "sanity check" that makes sure we are replaying the current branch
doesn't make sense anymore. Let's remove it.
