I hate to ask a question that I myself do not have a good answer to, but it is a bit worrysome that using these extra refs would cause for-each-ref to report different refs with the same name (the alternate's master branch and this one's master branch are both called refs/heads/master). I think no caller that reads from for_each_ref() keeps track of names that it has seen and tries clever things like flagging duplicates as errors, but it still feels like it is inviting trouble. -- 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
