In a triangular workflow, each branch may have two distinct points of interest: the @{upstream} that you normally pull from, and the destination that you normally push to. There isn't a shorthand for the latter, but it's useful to have. For instance, you may want to know which commits you haven't

When we call branch_get() to lookup or create a "struct branch", we make sure the "merge" field is filled in so that callers can access it. But the conditions under which we do so are a little confusing, and can lead to two funny situations: 1. If there's no branch.*.remote config, we cannot pro

When we create each branch struct, we fill in the "remote_name" field from the config, and then fill in the actual "remote" field (with a "struct remote") based on that name. However, it turns out that nobody really cares about the latter field. The only two sites that access it at all are: 1. g

The safe way to use `--reference` is to add in the recent `--dissociate` option, which optimizes the initial clone, but does not create any obligation to avoid pruning or deleting the reference repository.
