 Basically, that's what 

   git remote -v show remote 

 does: it reaches for the server behind remote asks it for the 
 refs/heads/* it has, compares them to the local heads, including their 
 tracking state, and outputs the results in a human-readable form. 


Thanks for all the replies - I appreciate it. 

Konstantin's advice above seems to do the trick, though I still have some 
reading to do...

John

$ git remote -v show origin
* remote origin 
   
  Fetch URL: bitbucket.org...   

  Push  URL: bitbucket.org:..
  HEAD branch: master
  Remote branch:
master tracked
  Local branch configured for 'git pull':
master merges with remote master
  Local ref configured for 'git push':
master pushes to master (local out of date)

Re: [git-users] How to checkout files from another branch, based on a filelist from a text file?

 Once you have a text file with the list of file names,
 just do

   $ git checkout dev
   $ while read fname; do \
 git checkout local_dev $fname; done  dev_files.txt

Even shorter:

$ git checkout local_dev $( cat dev_files.txt )

If you're not using bash, use:

$ git checkout local_dev `cat dev_files.txt`

 I can imagine a solution:
 Checkout files listed in diff_dev+local-dev_files.txt from
 local_dev to dev branch.
 This way I could stash them, and commit by selected groups.

 OTOH, if you want to check that *every* ref in your repository is the
 same as the ref of the same name in the remote repository, you've got
 to find a command that will list all the refs in the remote
 repositories and their values, and then compare those values with the
 local values.

Basically, that's what

  git remote -v show remote

does: it reaches for the server behind remote asks it for the
refs/heads/* it has, compares them to the local heads, including their
tracking state, and outputs the results in a human-readable form.
