Hi all, I'm playing with a repo hosted by repos.os.cz and I think I faced a bug (Pasky confirmed that this should be reported here as a bug). My repo has two branches, * master html Master contains a text file while html contains his conversion in html done via asciidoc. I need to URLs that point to the top of the branches in order to have an easy way for linking the documentation to external portals. This link points to HEAD, so top of master: http://repo.or.cz/w/LinuxKernelDevelopmentProcess.git?a=blob_plain;f=LinuxKernelDevelopmentProcess;hb=HEAD Browsing the repo I reach the following URL http://repo.or.cz/w/LinuxKernelDevelopmentProcess.git?a=blob;f=LinuxKernelDevelopmentProcess.html;hb=HEAD that is not accessible.
Because HEAD is master, not html, and there us no such file in master branch? But all the following links http://repo.or.cz/w/LinuxKernelDevelopmentProcess.git?a=blob;f=LinuxKernelDevelopmentProcess.html;hb=html http://repo.or.cz/w/LinuxKernelDevelopmentProcess.git?a=blob;f=LinuxKernelDevelopmentProcess;hb=master http://repo.or.cz/w/LinuxKernelDevelopmentProcess.git?a=blob;f=LinuxKernelDevelopmentProcess;hb=HEAD works You can use http://repo.or.cz/w/LinuxKernelDevelopmentProcess.git/html:/LinuxKernelDevelopmentProcess.html or http://repo.or.cz/w/LinuxKernelDevelopmentProcess.git/html:LinuxKernelDevelopmentProcess.html (and there is remote possibility that links would work, too)
Looks like is not possible to obtain a link to the top of a branch different from master.
It is possible, but you must specify the branch. P.S. Please reply also to git mailing list... -- Jakub Narebski Warsaw, Poland ShadeHawk on #git
