The last example in the git-bundle man page might be a bit cryptic but that is how bundles are expected to be used. To give people repository access who do not have real network connection other than Sneakernet. For one shot extraction, defining a remote in the config is overkill and you could just say: git ls-remote bundle.bdl to see what branches it contains and if you are interested in its master branch and want to merge it to your history, then git pull bundle.bdl master should do that. -- 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
