Subject: [BUG] git-branch -m cannot rename remote branches
Date: Sun, 8 Jun 2008 22:57:19 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200806082257.20833.jnareb@gmail.com> (raw)

I cannot rename remote branch (possibly packed, and possibly with
reflog) using "git branch"

[gitweb/web@git]$ git branch -m refs/remotes/gitweb-caching/master \
                                refs/remotes/gitweb-kernel.org/master
error: refname refs/heads/refs/remotes/gitweb-caching/master not found
fatal: Branch rename failed
[gitweb/web@git]$ git branch -m gitweb-caching/master \
                                gitweb-kernel.org/master
error: refname refs/heads/gitweb-caching/master not found
fatal: Branch rename failed
[gitweb/web@git]$ git branch -m remotes/gitweb-caching/master \
                                remotes/gitweb-kernel.org/master
error: refname refs/heads/remotes/gitweb-caching/master not found
fatal: Branch rename failed
