That is unfortunately *FALSE*. You forgot about how reflogs are stored for these branches. > Another advantage with the "always packed refs" is that you can have branches > bugfix and bugfix/next-bug side by side. Again, you forgot about reflogs. For this case I do not think it even is unfortunate. Having two "bugfix" and "bugfix/a" branches, if you are planning to use the hierarchical names to group things together, does not make much sense, and if you are not using these hierarchical names to group things together you can always use "bugfix" vs "bugfix-a" instead. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
