Hi List, In one book it says that "git fetch [remote]" pulls down everything you don't currently have in your local repository. However, when I look at FETCH_HEAD it only has the master head. Other branches don't seem to get fetched. I tried "git fetch [remote] *:*" but that gave fatal error messages. Then I tried "git fetch [remote] "*:foo/*" which worked great - I got every single branch. I am setting up a shared repo for a small devel team, which I want everyone to push/pull to. It seems safer to do that, than to have people just make the shared mount their current directory, then run git commands, but how can people see every branch in the shared repo using only fetch, other than the trick with foo/* that I used above? Am I missing something, or is this just going to be kind of clunky?
