This could > be done using the function Junio proposed un update_ref() in refs.c I would even suggest making it into an error, even if we do not error out on the reading side (being liberal when reading but more strict when creating, that is). That confused_ref() needs to be tightened further, by the way. It is called only when we are considering to tack the user string immediately below $GIT_DIR/ so the only valid cases are (1) the string begins with "refs/", or (2) the string is all uppercase (or underscore), especially without slash. The one in the proposed patch is not strict enough and does not enforce the former. - 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
