It is what you want, but you mis-use it. I will read the doc, thank you for the advice. 'When creating a new branch, set up configuration to mark the start-point branch as "upstream" from the new branch.' So no, that's not what I want. Using : git branch test git checkout test git pull origin HEAD Is what I want and it works. BUT, I used to need only 'git pull' Again, the behavior changed since I last used this.
