I was thinking about the following:
ref: refs/heads/master HEAD
e8a6e39ecfbd391a54b9c3329fd3c6e33d745abd refs/heads/bernstein
c5c64e3fe48302f0c4581985f9c68d615f7bcb4e refs/heads/master
3fa7ded19a8da868d3af7c942f86358e6720f0c7 refs/heads/master:submodule/path
URL: /home/sverdool/public_html/cloog.git refs/heads/master:submodule/path^{URL}
URL: http://www.liacs.nl/~sverdool/cloog.git refs/heads/master:submodule/path^{URL}
By the way, it would be nice if git-show-refs --deferefence used TAB
between sha1 and ref name, like in git-ls-remote / git-peek-remote,
otherwise I think git-show-refs output parsers would fail on [proposed]
"current branch" extension.
