Are you sure that this is the assignment that should be deleted, and if so why? Note that it's both conditionally and unconditionally assigned later on... Some words in the commit log about why this copy is removed would be helpful.
Thanks for the report. Yes, the logic escapes me as well, there were two separate changes from Liam and Richard Fitzgerald and I can't figure out why the reassignments of the variable new_name are required.
I've got a feeling it was people not working and testing against mainline independently trying to fix similar issues and ending up colliding when things went upstream.
