When you did a 'git pull', whatever you did would affect this branch. Meanwhile, the currently checked-out branch on the other side was 'blah', which is what came in. What you need to do is add the word 'master' to the 'git pull...' command you used. This will ensure that, regardless of what the currently checkedout branch on the sending side is, you will get the master branch. -- 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
