Sorry for that, will do it next time.

Because I think it's something different. It's more like in "route -n" than --dry-run in "patch --dry-run". Don't you think ?

I'm not sure what you are talking about. Should I wrap after "NULL," instead of "?"?

In fact, it seems that get_ref_states() always return 0 or just die when an error occur. And that transport_get_remote_refs() never return if something goes wrong.

So, what about removing got_states and use !no_query instead ?
