I am below "novice" when it comes to git:

Warning: No merge candidate found because value of config option
        "branch.master.merge" does not match any remote branch fetched.
No changes.
..

Is that "normal" ?

Yes.


Is that even the correct command to update my entire local existing copy of Jeff's git tree?

No.

Generally I would use

    cd $repo
    git-checkout master    # if not already there
    git pull        # fetches new objects, updates 'master'
    git-fetch -f $URL upstream:upstream    # fetch updated branch
    git-fetch -f $URL mv-ncq:mv-ncq
    git-fetch -f $URL upstream-fixes:upstream-fixes
    git-fetch -f $URL upstream:upstream
    ... continue for each branch you like...

There is probably an easier way to get it to download all branches, even if they have been rebased.
..

Thanks.  I was just going by your KHGTG page until now.
