Hi, maybe I found a bug in git. When I execute "git gc" in my local repository, git removes the file ".git/refs/heads/master". Is this an intended behavior (but why?) or is that a bug? Some commands to reproduce: ~ $ mkdir tmp; cd tmp ~/tmp $ git init Initialized empty Git repository in /home/myuser/tmp/.git/ ~/tmp $ echo "content" > a ~/tmp $ git add . ~/tmp $ git commit -a -m "first commit" Created initial commit 0b67f33: first commit 1 files changed, 1 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-) create mode 100644 a ~/tmp $ cat .git/refs/heads/master 0b67f33fff4152a912fdbe8819480b8fc1f2e990 ~/tmp $ git gc Counting objects: 3, done. Writing objects: 100% (3/3), done. Total 3 (delta 0), reused 0 (delta 0) ~/tmp $ cat .git/refs/heads/master cat: .git/refs/heads/master: No such file or directory ~/tmp $ cat .git/HEAD ref: refs/heads/master ~/tmp $ I tested this with git v1.6.0.6, v1.6.1.1 and the current master (a34a9dbb..).
