About staying up to date...

It used to be c:\shoes> svn up


I thought it would now be c:\shoes> git pull

If it says "Already up-to-date" I understand.

But sometimes it throws out a list of filenames and say it cannot
update. What to do? (I've been throwing away the old clone and doing a
fresh clone, but that's not the right way to go - it's not what scm is
supposed to do.)

This is on Windows using the msys release of git from google, "git
version 1.5.4.2.1161.g1a6f0"

[I know it's not a shoes issue, but shoes is the the only reason I've
needed to play with git.]

Thanks

DJ
