I suspect the last one in the above sequence of yours is "git stash pop". Definitely not "git apply" without any argument which is a no-op. >> : git diff --stat <baseof:current branch> - un-pushed filenames "git diff [--options] origin..." (three-dots) is often used. This is a shorthand for: git diff [--options] $(git merge-base origin HEAD) HEAD that is, "show me what I did since I forked from origin". >> : git-show-branch <current branch> - un-pushed comments This would be useful if you are using "fetch + rebase", but in any case git log --graph --pretty=oneline origin.. may be prettier these days. --graph is a recent invention that appeared first in 1.5.6. > Question: How do I create a branch on a remote repo when I'm on > my local machine, without sshing to it? I hope that the question is not "How do I do anything on a remote without having any network connection to it" as its answer cannot be anything but "telepathy". -- 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
