When calling "git symbolic-ref" it is easy to forget that the target must be a fully qualified ref. E.g., you might accidentally do: $ git symbolic-ref HEAD master Unfortunately, this is very difficult to recover from, because the bogus contents of HEAD make git believe we are no longer in a git repository (as is_git_dir explicitly checks for "^refs/heads/" in the HEAD target). So immediately trying to fix the situation doesn't work: $ git symbolic-ref HEAD refs/heads/master fatal: Not a git repository and one is left editing the .git/HEAD file manually. Furthermore, one might be tempted to use symbolic-ref to set up a detached HEAD: $ git symbolic-ref HEAD `git rev-parse HEAD` which sets up an even more bogus HEAD: $ cat .git/HEAD ref: 1a9ace4f2ad4176148e61b5a85cd63d5604aac6d This patch introduces a small safety valve to prevent the specific case of anything not starting with refs/heads/ to go into HEAD. The scope of the safety valve is intentionally very limited, to make sure that we are not preventing any behavior that would otherwise be valid (like pointing a different symref than HEAD outside of refs/heads/).
