It has a few very annoying things, the first and foremost of which is that HEAD points to some crazy branch (new-truncate). So when you do "git pull" without mentioning the branch (which is the normal behavior) and would expect to get your default thing (which was also what you asked me to pull in your original pull request), you instead get some totally inexplicable old random crud. That's really unexpected for a bare repository. I spent some time looking at the odd conflicts the other day when I pulled originally. I suspect you just did a "scp -rp" or something to initially set it up, which is why it contains some random branch - that just happened to be your active branch at the time you did that setup. (It also has FETCH_HEAD, index, COMMIT_EDITMSG etc - all things that don't make sense in a bare repository) Linus -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
