It might be possible (in "Gerrited" setups) to have local branches
outside refs/heads/, like for example in following fetch config:
[remote "origin"]
url = ssh://[email protected]/my-project
fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*
fetch = +refs/wip/*:refs/remotes/origin-wip/*
Let's say that 'test' branch already exist in origin/refs/wip/. If I
call:
git checkout test
then it will create a new branch and add an entry to .git/config:
[branch "test"]
remote = origin
merge = refs/wip/test
But if I create a branch 'test2' and call:
git push --set-upstream origin test2:refs/wip/test2
then branch is pushed, but no entry in .git config is created. I have
to do it manually. I attached a hack-patch to have it working just to
check with you if anything like that would be accepted. Obviously the
get_local_refs() would need to compute the actual list of local
hierarchies (if it is possible at all). And it probably should get a
better name. And probably something else.
What do you think?
