At the time the range notation would peel the ends to their corresponding commit, meaning ref v2.0 would point to the v2.0^0 commit. So the above workaround was introduced. This code looks up the ref before it's written to the bundle, and if the ref doesn't point to the object we expect (for tags this would be a tag object), we skip the ref from the bundle. Instead, when the ref is a tag that's the positive end of the range (e.g. v2.0 from the range "v1.0..v2.0"), then that ref is written to the bundle instead. Later, in 895c5ba3c1 (revision: do not peel tags used in range notation, 2013-09-19), the behavior of parsing ranges was changed and the problem was fixed at the cause. But the workaround in bundle.c was not reverted. Now it seems this workaround can cause a race condition. git-bundle(1) uses setup_revisions() to parse the input into `struct rev_info`. Later, in write_bundle_refs(), it uses this info to write refs to the bundle. As mentioned at this point each ref is looked up again and checked whether it points to the object we expect. If not, the ref is not written to the bundle. But, when creating a bundle in a heavy traffic repository (a repo with many references, and frequent ref updates) it's possible a branch ref was updated between setup_revisions() and write_bundle_refs() and thus the extra check causes the ref to be skipped. The workaround was originally added to deal with tags, but the code path also gets hit by non-tag refs, causing this race condition. Because it's no longer needed, remove it and fix the possible race condition. Signed-off-by: Toon Claes --- Earlier I reported[1] a race condition bug could occur if a ref is updated while a git-bundle(1) creation process is running.

The > resulting bundle seems to be missing `refs/heads/master`. I started digging into this bug again. And I've discovered the changes made by c06793a4ed (allow git-bundle to create bottomless bundle, 2007-08-08) cause some trouble. Those changes look up the refs for a second time, and if they mismatch, they might not get written to the bundle output file. It seems the workaround is not needed anymore since 895c5ba3c1 (revision: do not peel tags used in range notation, 2013-09-19) and thus I'm removing it while adding some tests. Unfortunately, I was not able to implement a test that hits the race condition bug.
