From 0f544ee897ac2cc760f29d3568cc4295ca69fd1f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?utf8?q?Carlos=20Mart=C3=ADn=20Nieto?= Date: Wed, 11 Jan 2012 13:12:38 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] archive: re-allow HEAD:Documentation on a remote invocation MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit The tightening done in (ee27ca4a: archive: don't let remote clients get unreachable commits, 2011-11-17) went too far and disallowed HEAD:Documentation as it would try to find "HEAD:Documentation" as a ref. Only DWIM the "HEAD" part to see if it exists as a ref. Once we're sure that we've been given a valid ref, we follow the normal code path. This still disallows attempts to access commits which are not branch tips.
