Hi, I am trying to use a repository being served at my work, by me. If I:
git ls-remote It shows the branches that I expect, e.g.: ... refs/remotes/floop git branch -a shows: * master remotes/origin/HEAD -> origin/master remotes/origin/master git branch -r show: origin/HEAD -> origin/master origin/master This produces an error message: git checkout -b noo origin/floop Fatal: Cannot update paths and switch to branch 'noo' at the same time. So, after that I've tried things I've read about but don't understand, like: git remote update git fetch I get the same error message when trying to checkout the branch. git remote add woof https://example.com/arf.git git fetch woof git checkout -b noo woo/floop Produces the same error message. git branch -a now also shows remotes/woof/master and nothing else new. Can you tell what the problem is? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Git for human beings" group.
