Hi,
git pull -r*) URL says:
If you often merge with the same branch, you may want to
configure the following variables in your configuration
file:
branch.master.remote = <nickname>
branch.master.merge = <remote-ref>
remote.<nickname>.url = <url>
remote.<nickname>.fetch = <refspec>
These are meant to be used with git-config(1):
git config branch.master.remote <nickname>
Or if you want to manually edit the config file, add this:
[branch "master"]
remote = <nickname>
etc.
and after cut-and-pasting that into .git/config, replacing
<foo> with values, I get
$ git pull -r http://github.com/../../master
fatal: bad config file line 17 in .git/config
where line 17 is [without any indentation]
branch.master.remote = eddy
This is with git version version 1.6.3.3
Greetings,
Jan. -- who just finds out the uninstall target is missing?!?
See attached.
Next time please send patches inline, it's easier to review them that
way.
*) I've been wondering why GIT lacks a "update", ie
pull-without-merge command. You almost never want
to git pull /without/ -r?
As 'pull == fetch + merge' (pull -r == fetch + rebase), pull without
merge would be fetch.
