If everybody used symlink or if everybody used regular file symref, we would catch this race and the second one will be stopped. My point was that by falling back we are introducing this unnecessary race, which might be unimportant but still it is a new race. To avoid that, I think symlink version needs to honor the HEAD.lock convention, which would slow down normal cases. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.htmlReceived on Thu Oct 27 09:19:09 2005
