> > For this particular one, there is no need for version 2. Actually, I think it is both true and untrue. True, because we need some indicator that we trust packed-refs file to provide tag dereferences to distinguish between the case when there are no tag objects at all, so there are no tag dereferences in packed-refs, and the situation where we use packed-refs generated by older git, and there are no tag dereferences in packed-refs because git didn't saved it.
We should be able to handle the ambiguous/malformed lines correctly and gracefully _always_, without 'trust' a version number to avoid to be prone to attacks with a malicious malformed file. Anyway document versioning it's a common and savy practice.
