[jira] [Created] (INFRA-4258) Cassandra: HEAD points to non-existent ref

Cassandra: HEAD points to non-existent ref
------------------------------------------

                 Key: INFRA-4258
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-4258
             Project: Infrastructure
          Issue Type: Bug
      Security Level: public (Regular issues)
          Components: Git
            Reporter: Eric Evans
            Priority: Minor


Cassandra's new Git repository has a HEAD that points to a non-existent ref (presumably master).  This causes the checkout to fail when cloning the repo, and makes portions of the CGI script fail unless a head is chosen first.

I believe the solution is to issue the following from the repo (cannot be done remotely): git symbolic-ref HEAD refs/heads/trunk

This is probably something that should be added to a migration checklist.

Any better now that it points back to trunk?
