Ah; yes, you're right. I can see this being very confusing to the newbie, though. Enough so that in beginner mode we might want it to say: 895be02..2fe5433 (remote) next -> (local) spearce/next ... especially since the git pull might follow up the pull with a merge from the local remotes/spearce/next to the local next branch. So it would be a good idea that it is clear when we are referring to a local or a remote branch. - Ted - 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
