Subject: fast-import error: fatal: 'refs/heads/master' - not a valid ref
Message-ID: <CAHSUVA5y1nZG69JbvC-wbmHhjyBGLx8Z2TM3htEyuCsWj=A+aw@mail.gmail.com>

Hi all,

I'm developing a remote helper which uses the fast-import stream for
fetching. When I perform cloning git prints error message - "fatal:
'refs/heads/master' - not a valid ref", however the clonning completes
normally. Each my fast-import commit command starts with "commit
refs/heads/master" header.

What does this error message mean and how can I fix it?
