To Smurf and Andrew: Did you notice that there's a tag named "master" in the smurf mm-trees.git repo, this would confuse the git and the users, please consider remove the "master" tag, OK? ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: rae l <crquan@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon, Sep 1, 2008 at 12:48 AM Subject: please consider remove those tags named master, which is ambigous with master branch To: Matthias Urlichs <smurf@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> please consider remove those tags named master, which is ambigous with master branch http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/smurf/linux-trees.git;a=tags -- To Git developers: I found that different git subcommand have inconsitent processing about ambiguous refname, git show will take "master" tag first, while git tag -v will take "master" branch first, So what's your suggestion to fix this? Just simple remove ambiguous refnames? Or we can add a feature to allow same refname in different namespaces (tags and branches)? Such as "-b" to refer a branch while "-t" to refer a tag name? Else how to distinguish them? gektop@tux ~/sforge/linux-2.6 0 $ PAGER= git show master warning: refname 'master' is ambiguous. commit 05230bd16821e2ec80321d72e97e7a2b1a07c6f2 Author: Adrian Bunk <bunk@xxxxxxxxx> AuthorDate: Sat Jul 30 00:45:08 2005 +0000 Commit: Matthias Urlichs <smurf@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> CommitDate: Mon Aug 1 05:16:36 2005 -0700 sound-oss-sequencer_syms-unexport-reprogram_timer This patch remoes an unneeded EXPORT_SYMBOL.
