I'm playing around with a gui frontend, and there I use git-for-each-ref to obtain possible arguments for git-checkout. That's how I discovered the 'problem', and solved it by stripping 'refs/heads/' in my frontend. But then I thought it would be nice if 'git-checkout' did the stripping on my behalf, since this might bite others too :) -- larsh - 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
