git will not merge anything into your local branch when it contains uncommitted changes. git pull ought to have complained about that. (And it sure does here.) So commit your local changes to your local branch, then you can synchronize with upstream using git pull master-fgdata master or git fetch master-fgdata git rebase remotes/master-fgdata/master I prefer the latter as that keeps my local changes last in the commit graph. I also recommend creating a named remote for the master repository. git remote add master-fgdata git://gitorious.org/fg/fgdata.git (You could name it origin to cut the ties to the bundle and make the repository behave more normal.)
