Here is my next git question (possibly another dumb one) :-) When I did a git pull in simgear/flightgear this morning I saw something like the following:
simgear$ git pull remote: Counting objects: 1, done. remote: Total 1 (delta 0), reused 0 (delta 0) Unpacking objects: 100% (1/1), done. >From gitorious.org:fg/simgear * [new branch] releases/2.2.0 -> origin/releases/2.2.0 * [new tag] 2.2.0-rc1 -> 2.2.0-rc1 Already up-to-date. Ok, cool I think, it looks like the 2.2.0 release branch has been created. But my question is how can I switch to this new branch? When I list my branches I see: simgear$ git branch maint * next The new branch is not listed. Does this branch only exist on the server? What do I have to do to see the branch locally? Do I have to manually copy any remote branch that I want to work with locally? What's the git thought process and reasoning here? How would a person typically know that a new remote branch got created and be able to access it? Why doesn't the new branch automatically show up in my list of branches? Thanks, Curt. -- Curtis Olson: http://www.atiak.com - http://aem.umn.edu/~uav/ http://www.flightgear.org - http://www.flightgear.org/blogs/category/curt/<http://www.flightgear.org/blogs/category/personal/curt/>
