No, since the "fetch" line in .git/config is prefixed by '+', which gets translated to the '-f' option for 'git-fetch'. And this was probably the primary reason for refs/remotes/* in the first place: you have a namespace in which there is no chance for 'git-fetch' to overwrite local changes (ancient git had no such namespace). -- larsh - 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
