phabricator "arc land" with non-origin remote?

Question

I am trying to "arc land" a change where the remote is not named "origin". (Why is not particularly important, but the short version is multiple remotes...).

The output of arc is:

$ arc land
Landing current branch 'FeatureX'.
Switched to branch develop. Updating branch...
Switched back to branch FeatureX.
Exception
Command failed with error #128!

COMMAND
git log 'origin/develop'..'develop'

STDOUT
(empty)

STDERR
fatal: ambiguous argument 'origin/develop..develop': unknown revision or path not in the working tree.
Use '--' to separate paths from revisions

On the other hand, if I try to specify the remote with --onto, I get a different error:

$ arc land --onto myremote/develop
Landing current branch 'FeatureX'.
Switched to branch myremote/develop. Updating branch...
Switched back to branch FeatureX.
Exception
Command failed with error #1!
COMMAND
git pull --ff-only --no-stat

STDOUT
(empty)

STDERR
fatal: No remote repository specified.  Please, specify either a URL or a
remote name from which new revisions should be fetched.

Is there a config setting that can specify the name of the default remote for arcanist to use?

Answer 1

Answer: There is no configuration option, but there is a command line option:

arc land --remote myremote

Or, the source can be modified to read it from the configuration:

ArcanistLandWorkflow.php:

     $remote_default = $this->isGit ? 'origin' : '';
+    $remote_default = nonempty(
+      $this->getConfigFromAnySource('arc.land.remote.default'),
+      $remote_default);
+      
     $this->remote = $this->getArgument('remote', $remote_default);
