Yes, the user can use traditional layout (e.g. refs/heads/origin is used as a remote tracking branch). So the check with refs/remotes/ is not technically correct, but it should probably look-up the configuration to check the tracking, if we really want to be strict about it. I personally do not care too much about it, though. - 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
