A related issue is that when a remote helper replies to an 'import' with _only_ a commit in refs/notes/, git (fetch or pull) produces an error message like error: refs/notes/hg-84b3865b750a567acb16929c21e14c4a45a5639b does not point to a valid object but successfully updates the ref (which is indeed valid) and returns 0. I have not been able to determine what exactly git thinks is invalid. As long as there is at least one non-notes commit in the stream, no such error message is produced. Is this behavior intended? -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
