Hi kp,

Thanks. I can now see that listed when I run "git branch -r" and I can
create a tracking branch with "git branch --track 4.0.1
origin/4.0.1" (which then gets listed when I run "git branch"). Do you
see a local branch called 4.0.1 too? If so you won't be able to  create
another one. I will add some changes to the new branch so you can see if
yours gets updated. Out of interest, how did you create the remote
branch? Feel free to add the info to the Wiki :-)

Just wondering how that branch naming is going to work out when we get
to releasing 4.0.1. Normally we would create a tag "4.0.1" for the
release. Won't it be confusing to have a tag and a branch with the same
name? If we also need a 4.0.2 where will we maintain that - also on the
branch called "4.0.1"?

IMHO the branch name might be less confusing without the ".1" so e.g.
simply "4.0" - but then it's the same as the 4.0 tag... Maybe
"4.0-branch" or "4.0-fixes" instead?
