I am not sure what you meant by "it's a tree-sha", but if you have an impression that .git/refs define "ref" as committish, you are mistaken. Linus has .git/refs/tags/v2.6.11-tree which tags a tree object. I even have a .git/refs/tags/junio-gpg-pub which tags a blob (blobish ;-> ?). - : send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
