sschuber@xp-sschuber2 ~ $ git ls-remote git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/qgit/qgit4.git 6c4444edbc4b870df7cde1e05ee76d1d15ea428f HEAD 6c4444edbc4b870df7cde1e05ee76d1d15ea428f refs/heads/master 70cd59500e8113901333741d82bbd055f96787f6 refs/tags/qgit-2.0rc1 1fe8ecc6a47d47a883beab1afa4607b1ca5da698 refs/tags/qgit-2.0rc1^{} 29bb10bf0397924489a51adb759f2df4b17fc31f refs/tags/qgit-2.0rc2 243cd78b72b1a4021d63829f62419f5483e70c7d refs/tags/qgit-2pre1 738063eb6f0f8f706e5f8609eab003ab19628617 refs/tags/qgit-2pre1^{} 17245c4248feab0d0425355ab5ff1cd4d7f83872 refs/tags/qgit2-pre2 7e02b07bc910a1d49b2cb4846641e01b7f6512aa refs/tags/qgit2-pre2^{}
