I recently\nchanged the .git/HEAD to be a symlink, and old git pull could not cope\nwith that. So you would get a small error and no updates.\n\n  So far I fixed it by just making it a hardlink in my tree for now;\ndon't do that at home though, since git update will happily trash your\nbranch information in that case.\n\n  BTW, tomorrow will by my bugfix merging day (I will have a look\nespecially on Ingo Molnar's fixes), I will fix the bugs in git pull and\ngit update I mentioned in my night mail, and finally expand the docs;\nsorry for the lack of activity on my side today. Then I will release 0.5\n(getting 0.4 and doing git pull is not very smooth now), and after that\nI will rewrite git merge to use Linus' merging stuff - can't wait to do\nthat. :-)\n\n  I'd still like you to constructively complain about my current branch\nmodel. ;-)\n\n  Thanks,\n\n-- \n\t\t\t\tPetr \"Pasky\" Baudis\nStuff: http://pasky.or.cz/\nC++: an octopus made by nailing extra legs onto a dog. -- Steve Taylor\n"}]}
