Upcoming 1.5.4 will have "git pull --rebase origin", which is a short-hand for the above command. That is a parallel for rebase based workflow, just like "git pull origin" is a short-hand for $ git fetch origin && git merge origin/master to help merge based workflow. - 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
