If you really want to know how much a bug tracker is not the solution, because it is a fire-and-forget (as in post, and never come back, even with a small little message that the fix actually worked) place for many bug reporters, just look at msysGit's bug tracker and weep. > diff --git a/builtin-clone.c b/builtin-clone.c > index f73029e..431c136 100644 > --- a/builtin-clone.c > +++ b/builtin-clone.c > @@ -350,6 +350,18 @@ static struct ref *write_remote_refs(const struct ref *refs, > return local_refs; > } > > +static void install_branch_config(const char *origin, const char *local, > + const char *remote) I would have used a different order (local, origin, remote), but that's okay, I guess.
