Subject: [PATCH v4 1/2] receive-pack: fix funny ref error messsage
Date: Wed, 01 Mar 2023 10:20:28 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <eef7bca63c616d745bc748fd53bdcbaf6551160b.1677666029.git.gitgitgadget@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <pull.1465.v4.git.1677666029.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>

From: ZheNing Hu <adlternative@gmail.com>

When the user deletes the remote one level branch through
"git push origin -d refs/foo", remote will return an error:
"refusing to create funny ref 'refs/foo' remotely", here we
are not creating "refs/foo" instead wants to delete it, so a
better error description here would be: "refusing to update
funny ref 'refs/foo' remotely".
