Ah, yes. It can probably wait. I needed this for the Eclipse Git plugin to work nicely wth shared cloned repos under cygwin. With full clones there is no such problem. Before the patch I created two references, one for cygwin and one for EGIT, but cygwin was very noisy with that workaround and git-gui/gitk didn't work reliably when they did work at all. -- robin
