A typical remote helper will return a `list` of refs containing a symbolic ref HEAD, pointing to, e.g. refs/heads/master. In the case of a clone, all the refs are being requested through `fetch` or `import`, including the symbolic ref. While this works properly, in some cases of a fetch, like `git fetch url` or `git fetch origin HEAD`, or any fetch command involving a symbolic ref without also fetching the corresponding ref it points to, the fetch command fails with: fatal: bad object 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000 error: <remote> did not send all necessary objects (in the case the remote helper returned '?' values to the `list` command). This is because there is only one ref given to fetch(), and it's not further resolved to something at the end of fetch_with_import(). While this can be somehow handled in the remote helper itself, by adding a refspec for the symbolic ref, and storing an explicit ref in a private namespace, and then handling the `import` for that symbolic ref specifically, very few existing remote helpers are actually doing that. So, instead of requesting the exact list of wanted refs to remote helpers, treat symbolic refs differently and request the ref they point to instead. Then, resolve the symbolic refs values based on the pointed ref. This assumes there is no more than one level of indirection (a symbolic ref doesn't point to another symbolic ref).

//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// Git - the stupid content tracker //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// "git" can mean anything, depending on your mood. - random three-letter combination that is pronounceable, and not actually used by any common UNIX command. The fact that it is a mispronunciation of "get" may or may not be relevant. - stupid. contemptible and despicable. simple. Take your pick from the dictionary of slang. - "global information tracker": you're in a good mood, and it actually works for you. Angels sing, and a light suddenly fills the room. - "goddamn idiotic truckload of sh*t": when it breaks Git is a fast, scalable, distributed revision control system with an unusually rich command set that provides both high-level operations and full access to internals. Git is an Open Source project covered by the GNU General Public License version 2 (some parts of it are under different licenses, compatible with the GPLv2). It was originally written by Linus Torvalds with help of a group of hackers around the net. Please read the file INSTALL for installation instructions. See Documentation/gittutorial.txt to get started, then see Documentation/giteveryday.txt for a useful minimum set of commands, and Documentation/git-commandname.txt for documentation of each command. If git has been correctly installed, then the tutorial can also be read with "man gittutorial" or "git help tutorial", and the documentation of each command with "man git-commandname" or "git help commandname". CVS users may also want to read Documentation/gitcvs-migration.txt ("man gitcvs-migration" or "git help cvs-migration" if git is installed). Many Git online resources are accessible from http://git-scm.com/ including full documentation and Git related tools. The user discussion and development of Git take place on the Git mailing list -- everyone is welcome to post bug reports, feature requests, comments and patches to git@vger.kernel.org (read Documentation/SubmittingPatches for instructions on patch submission). To subscribe to the list, send an email with just "subscribe git" in the body to majordomo@vger.kernel.org. The mailing list archives are available at http://news.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/, http://marc.info/?l=git and other archival sites. The maintainer frequently sends the "What's cooking" reports that list the current status of various development topics to the mailing list. The discussion following them give a good reference for project status, development direction and remaining tasks.
