You also need to link the ref. A log is only scanned if the ref by the same name is scanned. So you'd need to create a refs/workdir/<name>/HEAD in the parent repository. Using a symlink to point to the HEAD file from the workdir might just work. -- Shawn. -- 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
