Not sure what's the argument here, but aren't the two commands equivalent? Do you prefer the second syntax "git checkout -t <remote>/<branch>"? It's already a DWIM for "git checkout -b <branch> -t <remote>/<branch>", and I find this one far more confusing: git checkout <remote>/<branch> => detaches HEAD git checkout -t <remote>/<branch> => creates a local branch automatically -- Matthieu Moy http://www-verimag.imag.fr/~moy/ -- To unsubscribe from this list: 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
