If the _content_ is moving from the remote repository to the local one, I would think the arrow should be pointing from the remote repoistory to the local one, i.e.: * 895be02..2fe5433 next <- spearce/next But right now we are proposing: * 895be02..2fe5433 next -> spearce/next I would think the former makes more sense is the content is going *from* spearce/next into the local next branch.
