For the same reasons as in my earlier responses, I think it's dangerous to remove broken refs (it makes a small corruption much worse). It seems reasonably sane to remove a dangling symref, though if we teach for_each_ref to gracefully skip them, then leaving them in place isn't a problem. -Peff -- 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
