Subject: [PATCH] Remove .git/branches from the .git template.
Date: Sun, 9 Dec 2007 13:38:56 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20071209183856.GA5587@bitplanet.net> (raw)

The code in git to read the info in .git/branches is still there,
but nothing ever writes to this, so lets stop creating it.

As far as I can see this should be safe, but I admit to never really
knowing what .git/branches was originally used for - tracking remote
branches or something?  In any case, we only ever read from this dir
so the only left in git to deal with this seems to be for compatibilty
with older repos.
