I think we already discussed this, but just in case you forgot. They are used to tell git to treat as if objects in histories leading to certain commits are complete and available, i.e. only their object names matter and the refname field is primarily for debugging. It would be a grave regression if you errored out seeing duplicate names in them. -- 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
