Description
Kallithea default branch, commit eddb927e3473. Steps to reproduce:
- create new git repository via web UI
- clone this repo to a filesystem location (via a terminal)
- add a file and commit it
- git push
Results in terminal:
$ git push Password for 'http://user@localhost:5000': Counting objects: 3, done. Delta compression using up to 4 threads. Compressing objects: 100% (2/2), done.

The commit gets pushed correctly, but the error sent to the client is disturbing. Problem seems to be the empty argument '' which is calculated from
heads = heads.replace(push_ref['ref'], '')
for l in heads.splitlines():
cmd.append(l.strip())
(see kallithea/lib/hooks.py line 451)

Any thoughts on how it should be solved?
Will you fix it?

Not knowing more about the command that is being composed, we could check whether heads is empty, and only if not proceed with calling the command. I'm not sure, though, if there are cases where it will not be empty, or whether this is dead code, or whether this depends on the git version.
Also, the output is used to log the push action, but it never shows in the log (not even pushes without error, i.e. on existing repo). I am planning on digging into that further.

FYI, I had done some analysis at that time, but did not get to something that fixes the issue.

re check whether heads is empty, and only if not proceed with calling the command : heads are heads to exclude. Even if that list of existing heads is empty, we still want to log all the revisions that got pushed.
