I just tested this with junio/next and it seems this issue is still
unfixed: instead of

        reset refs/heads/blub
        from e7510461b7db54b181d07acced0ed3b1ada072c8

I get

        reset refs/heads/blub
        from :0

when running "git fast-export ^master blub".

That is not a problem. It has been discussed extensively, and the
consensus seems to be that such command should throw nothing:

Um.  Are you claiming I have said that "git fast-export ^master blub"
should silently emit nothing?  Or has this been discussed extensively
with someone else?

Maybe I misunderstood when you said:

A patch meeting the above description would make perfect sense to me.

Anyway, when you have:

% git fast-export ^next next^{commit}
# nothing
% git fast-export ^next next~0
# nothing
% git fast-export ^next next~1
# nothing
% git fast-export ^next next~2
# nothing

It only makes sense that:

% git fast-export ^next next
# nothing

It doesn't get any more obvious than that. But to each his own.

Cheers.
