Thanks again for taking up this work. As I'm browsing over your patches (and realizing how much of the arcana of the format I've forgotten), I hope that I did not make any errors in implementing the spec (and/or that Shawn didn't deviate his implementation from the spec). It would be extremely unfortunate if an incompatibility between CGit and JGit were discovered after it is released. So far I have always been able to read JGit reftables using the C / Go code, but it would be good to systematically test this, ie. generate a bunch of tables using JGit and check that passing them through the C code (read & write) leaves them unchanged. Or perhaps check in some tables as golden reference data. Josh can probably connect you to the right folks to help with this on the JGit side. -- Han-Wen Nienhuys - hanwenn@xxxxxxxxx - http://www.xs4all.nl/~hanwen
