Subject: How does 'git notes --ref' work?
Message-ID: <AANLkTimL137aFt2dyvdHxTMUjB4diwJQG-FQiYEK8tVJ@mail.gmail.com>

How does 'git notes --ref' work? If I try
'git notes --ref refs/meta/reject-commits add -m "reject" HEAD'
then the note is added to 'refs/notes/refs/meta/reject-commits' and not as
expected to 'refs/meta/reject-commits'.

The description of the --ref option says [1]:
"The ref is taken to be in refs/notes/ if it is not qualified."
What is a qualified ref?

Thanks, Edwin
