Since Jeff brought up $repo/branches/$branch, you may also want to add that $repo/branches/$branch is used to record the URL of the remote $branch (the information used to be in a flat file $repo/remotes, branch name and URL separated by shell $IFS, one record on each line), and is quite different from those 40-byte SHA1 plus LF files you see in $repo/refs/*/ directory. I think it is a reasonable one, I also follow the $repo/branches/$branch convention Cogito uses, and I would encorage other Porcelain implementations to follow suit. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
