Subject: clone: --branch=<branch> always means refs/heads/<branch>
X-Git-Tag: v1.7.10-rc0~125^2~5
X-Git-Url: http://git.tremily.us/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=9e5850460164f49dc9ae47569838084f5572846d;p=git.git

clone: --branch=<branch> always means refs/heads/<branch>

It does not make sense to look outside refs/heads for HEAD's target
(src_ref_prefix can be set to "refs/" if --mirror is used) because ref
code only allows symref in form refs/heads/...
