<rant>This is one reason I have come to hate git. If the user isn't creating a branch, then don't use the branch creation syntax to do it. Use the branch creation syntax, and people who aren't git gurus (most of the world) will make the forgivable mistake of thinking they've created a branch. git has become the Kabbalah of CVSs.</rant> -- Charles Curley /"\ ASCII Ribbon Campaign Looking for fine software \ / Respect for open standards and/or writing?
