Two issues there: * Deleting branches: I currently don't support this in fast-import, but I'll add support for it. Its actually pretty simple to tell it to drop a branch, especially if the dang thing doesn't actually exist in the git repository yet (because its only in-memory). * Creating a branch without refs/heads/ prefix: This is a bug. I had good intentions by trying to verify the name was one that didn't contain special reserved characters, but I wound up also requiring you to create branches only in the refs/heads/ namespace. That was not what I wanted to do. I'm patching it tonight. -- Shawn. - 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
