[PATCH] Warn when send-pack does nothing

From: Daniel Barkalow <barkalow@iabervon.org>
Date: Dec 4, 2005, 16:59 UTC
Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.64.0512041141280.25300@iabervon.org>

If you try to push into an empty repository with no ref arguments to git push, it doesn't do anything and doesn't say anything. This adds a warning when send-pack isn't going to push anything, so you don't assume that it silently did what you wanted.
