_pygit2.GitError: reference 'refs/heads/master' not found

git show-ref is empty, but this is pretty much expected, no?

This commit and push still go through, but the error is nevertheless thrown.

Am I doing something wrong?

Beginne mit der Reproduktion rund um pygit2.clone_repository, repoClone.create_commit und remote.push; untersuche den leeren Zustand von git show-ref und die an create_commit übergebene Referenz. Bestätige, warum Commit und Push trotz der gemeldeten Exception erfolgreich zu sein scheinen, und überprüfe anschließend, dass dasselbe Skript ohne den Fehler abgeschlossen wird.
