If you have two branches tracking an upstream that is rebased, currently you have to do: git checkout branch1 git pull --rebase remote branch git checkout branch2 git pull --rebase remote branch The second rebase works because the first "git pull --rebase" does not store in the local tracking branch the new value, so the second rebase detects that it is rebased. I think one should be able to do the same without the explicit arguments to "git pull --rebase", but without arguments it stores the new state of the remote branch so the second "git pull --rebase" does not work. Mark this case as test_expect_failure to make people aware of this behavior. Signed-off-by: Santi Béjar <santi@xxxxxxxxxxx> --- Changes since v3: - Move the "git rebase --abort" to the failing test to not polute the next test. Hi, I just wanted to make people aware of this behavior and then decide if this is the correct behavior. Then we can document it, or try to find a better solution.
