So in that sense the > documentation is still correct. A related question: is the name "origin" hard-coded as the default, or does each repository remember specifically which is the upstream repository regardless of what you named it? From what I see in the config file, it would have to be per-branch. I suppose in other cases it's implicit in where the label was found under remotes. --John TradeStation Group, Inc. is a publicly-traded holding company (NASDAQ GS: TRAD) of three operating subsidiaries, TradeStation Securities, Inc.
