	I've started working recently with git, and I'm suffering problems to
update a master repository. Sometimes, git refuses to update a master
repository:

git push
ssh://master.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mchehab/v4l-dvb.git
master
error: src refspec master matches more than one.
fatal: unexpected EOF

	Even removing the branch, git-prune and reimporting doesn't work. I
have to reimport the tree from master repository.

	Any sugestions?

Cheers, 
Mauro.

	I found the problem. git created a refs/bases dir, with old references
with the same names. Removing it fixed the problem.
