Subject: [git-new-workdir RFC] Backlinking $workdir/logs/HEAD to $GIT_DIR/logs/workdir?
Date: Sat, 27 Dec 2008 13:15:26 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20081227121526.GA12120@chistera.yi.org> (raw)
Hello,
I use git new-workdir for some of my projects. Apart from the usual
caveat "don't checkout the same branch twice", I found another small
issue, surely known: the reflog for HEAD in the workidirs does not exist
in the source git repo, hence git-gc will happily prune what it believes
to be dangling commits.
Would it be, perhaps, be okay to create a logs/workdir/<name>/HEAD
symlink pointing to $workdir/logs/HEAD, so that this does not happen?
Comments welcome.
