Hello,
I created my git repository by cloning it with git-svn from an upstream SVN
repository. When I did that, a branch "master" was created. Afterwards I
renamed that branch to "upstream". However every time I "git-svn fetch", it
recreates the "master" branch, pointing it at the newest upstream commit.
Ideally, I'd like it to just forget about "master" and do the same to my
"upstream" branch. Is it possible?
If not, then is it at least possible to have it not recreate the "master"
branch? It clutters my view.
Here's a typescript (with git 1:1.5.6.3-1.1ubuntu2):
$ svnadmin create svn-repo

As you can see, "master" sprang back to life after the last command.
