[PATCH v2 1/4] refs: new function newname_has_bad_prefix

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The function is intended to check if a user specified name
for a new reference (for remotes, branches or tags) has
a bad prefix.

Intention: Prevent users from creating tags/remotes/branches
which are named "refs" or "refs/..."
