Thanks -- I appreciate it. The tracking feature is very useful; even though I understand the whole refspec syntax perfectly well I still use this feature.

Besides, it's a bit hard to explain to folks why the widgets are called "Match Tracking Branch Name" and "Tracking Branch" but the branch is not actually tracked :-) -- 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
