But the answer is that the directory itself does not get mentioned (it is not a file!), and we seem to always exclude ".git" paths entirely. I'm not sure if that's the best thing in every case (what if you have precious content in a ".git" file?), but this does behave exactly as a valid ".git" would with an empty HEAD ref. So I think it's a reasonable behavior in practice. -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
