Hi, While we are on the subject of Git...
How does one determine the source remote (and branch) for a local branch? The reason I ask is that the default action (if you don't specify a remote) for a push and pull is to use the remote attached to the current branch. It would also just be nice to know where the code came from, if you have forgotten. git clone git://[remote1] git remote add myremote git://[remote2] git fetch myremote git checkout -b mybranch myremote/master ?? check source of branch ?? The command 'git remote' shows the following: origin myremote The command 'git branch -a' shows: master * mybranch remotes/origin/HEAD -> origin/master remotes/origin/master remotes/myremote/master So if I just came back from a long night, and wasn't sure, what command do I use to determine which remote (and branch) is "mybranch" sourced from? I did notice that ".git/config" does show everything I want, including the remote (and branch) that this branch was sourced from, but I am sure that is cheating, and not Git kosher. Is there a Git command, something to the effect like 'git show branch mybranch' that would show myremote/master or even git://[remote2]/master?
