You can, however, check out a specific branch or tag (see the git-checkout manual on that). I hope this answer suites you, otherwise you must wait for a more advanced user's answer...

Re: [git-users] warning: Not setting branch master as its own upstream.

Please specify which branch you want to merge with. See git-pull(1) for details. git pull remote branch If you wish to set tracking information for this branch you can do so with: git branch --set-upstream master origin/master Naturally I tried to run git branch --set-upstream master origin/master And here is what I got when I ran it The --set-upstream flag is deprecated and will be removed. Consider using --track or --set-upstream-to Branch master set up to track remote branch master from origin. Since this option will be removed I decided to it the modern way using --track. Here is what I got after running git branch --track master fatal: A branch named 'master' already exists. After this error I decided to use --set-upstream-to option. Here is what I got after running git branch --set-upstream-to=master warning: Not setting branch master as its own upstream. Then I ran git pull and everything worked. I suspect it worked because of --set-upstream deprecated. Can someone explain what have I done wrong with --track and --set-upstream-to options?
