Hi,

so I have installed git version 2.2.0 currently, because I was trying to reproduce "Bug in reflog of length 0x2BFF".

Now I was using git as a normal user, rebasing some stuff (incidentally the reflog improvements) and an error occurred: $ git rebase --continue error: Ref refs/heads/todo_sb13_ref-transactions-reflog-as-file is at c48602d0aaa11b9099440c647ac028604fde4b14 but expected d1bbdc6f161ae7550805d565cad1d930487dad34 fatal: update_ref failed for ref 'refs/heads/todo_sb13_ref-transactions-reflog-as-file': Cannot lock the ref 'refs/heads/todo_sb13_ref-transactions-reflog-as-file'.

So I think we definitely have a bug in the reflog code already in version 2.2.0.
Trying to reproduce the error did not yield success.

Thanks, Stefan
