From: Junio C Hamano Date: Fri, 15 Dec 2023 20:32:42 GMT Subject: [PATCH 2/5] git-bisect.txt: BISECT_HEAD is not that special Message-ID: <20231215203245.3622299-3-gitster@pobox.com> In-Reply-To: <20231215203245.3622299-1-gitster@pobox.com> The description of "git bisect --no-checkout" called BISECT_HEAD a "special ref", but there is nothing special about it. It merely is yet another pseudoref.
