Perhaps a few obvious ones are missing?

 - It is no longer possible to get rid of objects associated with the
   history of a branch by deleting the branch and then running gc.

 - It is no longer possible to trust git that you would start a history of
   a branch afresh when you create one.  If you happened to have an
   unrelated branch with the same name in the past, the new branch
   inherits reflog entries when it shouldn't.

What problem are you guys really trying to solve?



What is this about???
