From: Junio C Hamano Date: Thu, 23 Jun 2011 16:35:10 +0000 (-0700) Subject: git.txt: de-emphasize the implementation detail of a ref X-Git-Tag: v1.7.6.1~41^2~3 X-Git-Url: https://git.lorimer.id.au/gitweb.git/diff_plain/0abcfbff4ddaf08e5aa2524f28a7035095b6d0c9?ds=sidebyside;hp=0abcfbff4ddaf08e5aa2524f28a7035095b6d0c9 git.txt: de-emphasize the implementation detail of a ref It is an unimportant implementation detail that branches and tags are stored somewhere under $GIT_DIR/refs directory, or the name of the commit that will become the parent of the next commit is stored in $GIT_DIR/HEAD. What is more important is that branches live in refs/heads and tags live in refs/tags hierarchy in the ref namespace, and HEAD means the tip of the current branch. Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano ---
