Yep. That's what i though it is. I.e. origin/branchname will point
always to the last pushed commit only. Isn't it a bit strange that git
fetch doesn't update origin/qa?
Probably the problem is that whenever I'm pulling or pushing to remote
repo i expect the last updated state of particular remote branch to be
reflected in origin/branchname, but IMHO it is correct expectation...
What do you think?
Thanks,
Eugene
