Hi, I generally tend to use cogito -- it does all the heavy lifting, like recovering from interrupted fetchs (usually) for me. One thing I haven't really gotten my head around is the difference between a branch and a remote. git-branch knows of 'remotes' (via the -r parameter) and these to be unrelated to what cogito thinks remotes are (it seems to look for things in .git/refs/head/<name> and then a corresponding .git/branches/<name>/ which it then declares a remote). Yet, git-init-db creates both .git/remotes and .git/branches What is the difference between the two. From my (naïve) perspective the two tools (git and cogito) regarded them very differently. Any explanation, or pointer to some documentation, would be helpful.
