Hello everybody
Yesterday I stumble upon a bug when doing git init. I didn't
find any references to it, so I don't know if is a known problem
or not.
Steps to reproduce:
# git init .
BUG: refs.c:2123: reference backend is unknown
I'm able to reproduce this on multiple systems where the git
version is newer than v2.44.0. This happens only when I have
an "includeIf" in the ~/.gitconfig . Bellow [1] I have a
minimal configuration for reproducing the bug. With same
gitconfig but versions lower than v2.43.4 the error is
no longer happening.
So I went and did a git bisection and the error appeared with
173761e21b setup: start tracking ref storage format
Previous commit ("0fcc285c5e") is working fine.
I cc'ed Patrick Steinhardt since the error appeared from his
commit.
Best regards,
Razvan
