Weird HEAD branch #101

Closed Fab1n closed 10 years ago

Fab1n commented 10 years ago

Hey guys,

I'm working in the team of FOCONIS with roland and I'm currently unifying our git-setup. In this context I found a remote-branch on your repo, which is called HEAD and will probably be misunderstood as HEAD. But term "HEAD" in git has a special meaning in a local copy of a repo. I don't know if there is a special meaning behind this branch, especially because remote-branch master is pointing to the same commit-id. The remote repo normally has no HEAD, because it is bare and there is no working copy. I hope this helps a bit to reduce branch landscape.

Hi, this is what I've got when I list the shared repo branches:

git remote show origin
* remote origin
  Fetch URL: ssh://git@github.com:22/OpenNTF/org.openntf.domino.git
  Push  URL: ssh://git@github.com:22/OpenNTF/org.openntf.domino.git
  HEAD branch: master
  Remote branches:
    OffsetBasedHandleTracking tracked
    declan                    tracked
    jesse                     tracked
    master                    tracked
    nathan                    tracked
    paul                      tracked
    rene                      tracked
    timtripcony               tracked
  Local branches configured for 'git pull':
    jesse  rebases onto remote jesse
    master rebases onto remote master
    nathan rebases onto remote nathan
    paul   rebases onto remote paul
  Local refs configured for 'git push':
    jesse  pushes to jesse  (local out of date)
    master pushes to master (local out of date)
    nathan pushes to nathan (up to date)
    paul   pushes to paul   (local out of date)

@jyyna thanks a lot. Just ran ls-remote to check against it and you're right. There is no HEAD branch. Some weird caching of refs or something like that. Thank you for your quick answer
