I'd have to say that a DWIM that the user needs to diagnose with such a "feature" is a total failure. Can't we fix that root cause instead? That is, for a name, e.g. "refs/remotes/origin/notes/commit" (the original example in [PATCH 0/2]) or "commit" (the usual): - If it is already a ref, just use that (e.g. use that stuff in the refs/remotes/ hierarchy); or - If it is not, prefix refs/notes/ to it. or something? -- 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
