Just add "--track" to the git-checkout command, and it will be fine: [proski@dv junk]$ git checkout --track -b everything origin/everything Branch everything set up to track remote branch refs/remotes/origin/everything. Switched to a new branch "everything" [proski@dv junk]$ git-pull Already up-to-date. [proski@dv junk]$ Or better yet, add this to ~/.gitconfig: [branch] autosetupmerge = true This would be equivalent to using "--track" by default. Please make sure you have a recent version of git, as --track appeared first in git-1.5.1. -- Regards, Pavel Roskin - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
