Re: Using git-replace in place of grafts -- and publishing .git/refs/replace between repos?

David Chanters [off-list ref] writes:

I've tried:

[remote "origin"]
        fetch =
+refs/replace/*:+refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*:refs/replace/*

Read the documentation and learn about <refspec> instead of blindly
guessing.

	[remote "origin"]
		fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*
	        fetch = +refs/replace/*:refs/replace/*

would be syntactically more correct.  That would blindly fetch each
and every replace refs from the other side and apply the replacement.

It is questionable if it is a sensible thing to do, though.

"Git cabal" has been discussing a plan to make this easier but it is
not quite ready to outline here yet.  Perhaps after I return from my
vacation post 1.8.0 release ;-)
