Hmm, interesting.
$ git checkout --orphan notyet
$ git rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD
$ git symbolic-ref --short HEAD
Please don't scare newcomers with these corner cases ;-)
I see this:
$ git rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD
HEAD
fatal: ambiguous argument 'HEAD': unknown revision or path not in the
working tree.
Use '--' to separate paths from revisions, like this:
'git <command> [<revision>...] -- [<file>...]'
$ git symbolic-ref --short HEAD
notyet
Are you trying to say that the result of 'rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD'
is suboptimal and that of 'symbolic-ref --short HEAD' is OK?
