Finding only the trunk: $ git branch * master
after a "git clone git://git.linuxcnc.org/git/emc2.git emc2-dev", I've scoured all likely-looking manpages, wikipedia, and installed git-doc, without yet elucidating why I see only the trunk, when wiki.linuxcnc.org tells me that command will "list all branches in repository". Is it possible that the clone only fetched the trunk, omitting all branches? But /usr/share/doc/git-doc/tutorial.txt says that clone creates a new directory "containing a clone of [xxxx]'s repository" i.e. not just a nominated or default branch. And yet, the directory ~/emc2-dev/.git/branches is empty. So "clone" did not in fact clone the repository. Just the trunk. i.e. It's rather like a CVS checkout of main. It'll take me more hours to figure out what I need to do to actually clone the repository, OR otherwise interrogate the original to elicit available branches, and clone the branch of interest, which is both what I need, and apparently all that actually comes across. Any application of the clue-stick would be gratefully received, 'cos the learning curve is a bit slippery at the bottom.
