I thought I should be using something more explicit. Like getRefSha("HEAD",
ANY_REF, false) -- only to find that it wouldn't work. That means that this
code would not work either. Why? Well, because HEAD does not have to be
a symbolic ref. If you check out anything else than branch (which you can),
HEAD will be set to the SHA1 directly and if you commit in such state (which
you also can), the HEAD will be different from anything in refs/.
Therefore I'll either have to always ask git via run("git-rev-parse HEAD",
head), add HEAD into the map, or store HEAD somewhere in the Git object.
Which do you think makes most sense?
(Note: Yes, I noted that getRefSha("HEAD", ANY_REF, true) should work, but of
course that is the run("git-rev-parse HEAD") case.
