You suggest integrating refs/notes/foo into refs/heads by means of a pointer… at which point we are polluting the branch history space again (think gitk), no? I appreciate the simplicity of this idea of yours, which I had not thought of. Indeed, maintaining a head at the top of refs/notes/topgit-metadata (or whatever) has charm. I do not mean to discard it at all right now, and will think about this more! git-notes was designed to be used for such cases, I was pleased to note the configurability. Maybe it is the ticket. Still: why not commit headers? -- martin | http://madduck.net/ | http://two.sentenc.es/ ... with a plastic cup filled with a liquid that was almost, but not quite, entirely unlike tea. -- douglas adams, "the hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy" spamtraps: madduck.bogus@xxxxxxxxxxx
