I am afraid that is a wrong question. How long have we had the
packed-refs anyway?
The question is "How to get the list of refs from a Porcelain if
it wants to be compatible with GIT v1.4.4-rc1 (Nov 7, 2006) and
later?", and the answer is for-each-ref.
Having said that, you could explode it by hand like this:
git for-each-ref --format='%(objectname) %(refname)' refs/heads |
while read sha1 refname
do
test -f "$GIT_DIR/$refname" ||
git update-ref "$refname" "$sha1"
done
-
To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in
the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
