Part of the rationale for the GIT_NAMESPACE environment variable is to allow the server to restrict the namespace and only show that specific slice of the repository's refs to the client. It allows a server administrator to put several logical repositories into a single repository, and have clients be oblivious to this fact. -- Shawn. -- To unsubscribe from this list: 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
