Hi,
  this patch was present in msysgit from Mar 2012.
Do you like it?
I'm sorry, there is no author signoff; is the patch small enough?

Stepan

Adding an extra '--' would make sense if we do something like
'git fast-export $stuff master' and there was a file named master.
However, we do 'git fast-export $stuff refs/heads/master', which case
the '--' is a no-nop *always*.

It doesn't hurt to add it though. I think.

It needs an explanation in the commit message, too. As Felipe noted, I
do not think it would help with ambiguity, but it should not hurt, and
is a reasonable defensive thing to do (but I did not think about it too
long, so maybe Sverre has an example that needs it).

It would be nice if this were an argv_array so we would not have to
worry about managing the array size. This is one of several spots that
leaks array memory that I have been meaning to fix.

I just posted a series that addresses those leaks and converts this
site. I do not want to hold your patch hostage to my series, but
depending on the review on my series, you may want to re-roll this on
top; you would drop the line above, and change:

> +	fastexport->argv[argc++] = "--";

to:

    argv_array_push(&fastexport->args, "--");

IIRC we had problems with refs vs file names.

Ciao,

Actually I tried to push a file named refs/heads/master and I saw the
issue. I'd say it's a very rare issue, and I don't see how it could be
triggered with normal files since all the ref names have the full name.
That being said I don't think it would hurt.
