---------------------------------------------

             Summary: Improve git branch handling for CircleCI generate.sh
                 Key: CASSANDRA-17997
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-17997
             Project: Cassandra
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Derek Chen-Becker


The generate.sh script assumes a base git branch that is local and named after the official repo branch (e.g. `cassandra-3.11`). This may not be a local branch if the developer has recently cloned the repo and is creating a work branch, and will lead to the git commands in generate.sh failing:

 

```

fatal: ambiguous argument 'cassandra-3.11...HEAD': unknown revision or path not in the working tree.
Use '--' to separate paths from revisions, like this:
'git <command> [<revision>...] -- [<file>...]'

```

We should be able to make some sanity checks to better guide or warn the developer if things aren't set up properly to check against git.
