Description Jonathan Bedard 2023-08-29 13:44:52 PDT

If a user has previously checked out a branch, we force push that branch and then the user re-checks out the same branch, we will use the original location instead of the new location. This workflow is particularly relevant for floating branch refs, like `webkit-security`, which change the branch they are tracking over time.
