I'm up to date with my cygwin installation. I also tried on various windows platforms and machines. Additionally, I also tried a non OpenSG git repository with the very same result. It is not an OpenSG problem but a cygwin installation problem.

So let me summerize... git clone xxx -> create rep in empty environment git pull -> in git enviromnent is a like git fetch + git merge ...i.e. if I want be synchronized with the main repository of OpenSG 2 I have to do rerun git pull? Is there a command to revert to the last state of the local clone if something does not match my expectations (undo)?
