Occasionally, in some setups (*cough* forks on repo.or.cz *cough*) some refs go stale, e.g. when the forkee rebased and lost some objects needed by the fork. The quick & dirty way to deal with those refs is to delete them and push them again. However, git-push first would first fetch the current commit name for the ref, would receive a null sha1 since the ref does not point to a valid object, then tell receive-pack that it should delete the ref with this commit name. delete_ref() would be subsequently be called, and check that resolve_ref() (which does _not_ check for validity of the object) returns the same commit name. Which would fail. The proper fix is to avoid corrupting repositories, but in the meantime this is a good fix in any case. Incidentally, some instances of "cd .." in the test cases were fixed, so that subsequent test cases run in t/trash/ irrespective of the outcome of the previous test cases.

//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// GIT - the stupid content tracker //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// "git" can mean anything, depending on your mood. - random three-letter combination that is pronounceable, and not actually used by any common UNIX command. The fact that it is a mispronunciation of "get" may or may not be relevant. - stupid. contemptible and despicable. simple. Take your pick from the dictionary of slang. - "global information tracker": you're in a good mood, and it actually works for you. Angels sing, and a light suddenly fills the room. - "goddamn idiotic truckload of sh*t": when it breaks Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations and full access to internals. Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License. It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of hackers around the net. It is currently maintained by Junio C Hamano. Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions. See Documentation/tutorial.txt to get started, then see Documentation/everyday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands, and "man git-commandname" for documentation of each command. CVS users may also want to read Documentation/cvs-migration.txt. Many Git online resources are accessible from http://git.or.cz/ including full documentation and Git related tools. The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org. To subscribe to the list, send an email with just "subscribe git" in the body to majordomo@vger.kernel.org. The mailing list archives are available at http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=git and other archival sites. The messages titled "A note from the maintainer", "What's in git.git (stable)" and "What's cooking in git.git (topics)" and the discussion following them on the mailing list give a good reference for project status, development direction and remaining tasks.
