Having said all that, I think your patch is going in the right
direction. If somebody had a symbolic ref in refs/heads/, the
removal should remove it, not the pointee, which may not even
exist. Does branch -d sym work correctly with your patch

Basically, there is a master branch, and an alias symref to

alias, it ends up:
- NOT deleting the alias symref
- DELETING the master loose ref
- NOT deleting the master

Hi,
At $dayjob we renamed a branch, and for a grace period, we kept the

for switching. This has worked well, until we tried to remove the
symref/alias. The following script demonstrates what we discovered:
$ git --version
