My feeling is that there should be nothing to prevent you from having a non-flat namespace in .git/refs/heads; i.e. we should allow ".git/refs/heads/foo/bar". Some of the existing tools may be forgetting to call either "mkdir -p $(dirname $ref)" if they are written in shell, or safe_create_leading_directories(ref) in C, but I consider that is a bug. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
