It's currently kind of a pain to deal with the situation where you've got stuff on your workstation that you want to version control in a shared repository on a server. I think it shouldn't be on fetch, though; I think a "git remote" command for describing, creating, and modifying remotes would be better, since you also sometimes want to add a "Push:" line. Maybe: git remote <name>: Print info about <name> git remote add <name> <URL> [<direction> ...]: create a remote git remote <name> <direction> ...: modify a remote where <direction> is either: pull <remote> <local> or push <local> <remote> -Daniel *This .sig left intentionally blank* - : send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
