Subject: push fails with unexpected 'matches more than one'
Date: Fri, 12 Oct 2007 08:59:39 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <11921723791817-git-send-email-prohaska@zib.de> (raw)
This adds a test case for unambigous local match but multiple remote
matches. To me, it is unexpected that a ref that is perfectly defined
on the local side fails with 'matches more than one'.
The following rule could solve this:
A ref shall first be unambigously resolved on the local side, and its
full name should be used for matching on the remote side.
For example 'frotz' resolves locally to 'heads/refs/frotz'.
Therefore pretend the user had typed 'heads/refs/frotz'.
But maybe there is some hidden secret about the current rules that
I do not see.
