From d81ba50a9b044d51039fc1a45fb6685d631d1dfe Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: ZheNing Hu Date: Wed, 1 Mar 2023 10:20:28 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] receive-pack: fix funny ref error messsage When the user deletes the remote one level branch through "git push origin -d refs/foo", remote will return an error: "refusing to create funny ref 'refs/foo' remotely", here we are not creating "refs/foo" instead wants to delete it, so a better error description here would be: "refusing to update funny ref 'refs/foo' remotely".
