As an aside, the problem here is likely a manifestation of the fact that nobody understands what a branch is; the word 'branch' is TERRIBLE, as everyone has a different idea for what that should mean. In my opinion, `git branch' should become `git ref' or the like. One of git's worst faults is that a complicated and imprecise interface has been draped over a very simple and precise underlying structure. -- 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
