I think we already had the same discussion some time ago ;-) This asks for support of a way to specify a remote origin branch without any local tracking, like origin = "<remotebranch> of <remote>" But not supporting this in a first step should be no problem, as you always can do "git pull somewhere that-head" directly. A side-effect of the origin-arrangement would be that branching off a tracking branch would automatically update it on pull from the new branch. I would see this as improvement of usability as "generating a local development branch from a remote one" does not need any special command. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.htmlReceived on Mon May 15 11:49:50 2006
