Subject: [PATCH] Elaborate on why ':' is a bad idea in a ref name.
Date: Sat, 20 May 2006 22:03:14 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20060521020314.GC7605@spearce.org> (raw)
With the new cat-file syntax of 'v1.3.3:refs.c' we should mention
it as part of the reason why ':' is not permitted in a ref name.
Signed-off-by: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org>
