You do not need to switch branch. The command above has all the information it needs on the command line. One thing to note though. If you have a local branch tracking the remote featurea branch, it will not automatically start tracking the featureb branch when you rename the remote branch. You will have to fix the tracking manually (either by setting up a new tracking branch for featureb, or by editing the .git/config file to reflect the new situation). //Peter -- 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
