FYI, If you want to have a simple uncluttered life, you can use a couple of quick git commands to only clone the master branch and leave all the other legacy stuff behind. The trick is to "manually" add the remote specifying only the remote branches you are interested in tracking with the -t option.
For example, a non-committer would do the following (for committers, just the url changes slightly to the ssh variant) mkdir wonder cd wonder git init git remote add -t master origin git://github.com/projectwonder/wonder.git git fetch git checkout master Next, continue with uncluttered git life and a more simple 'git branch -avv' output. :-) Regards, Kieran On Dec 13, 2011, at 6:22 PM, Chuck Hill wrote: > origin/master is what you want. > > On 2011-12-13, at 3:19 PM, G Brown wrote: > >> Hi, >> >> There are so many branches: >> >> origin/HEAD -> origin/master >> origin/Wonder_1_0_0_Branch >> origin/Wonder_1_0_1_Branch >> origin/Wonder_2_0_0_Branch >> origin/Wonder_2_0_0_WebObjects_5_4_Branch >> origin/Wonder_2_0_1_Branch >> origin/Wonder_2_0_2_Branch >> origin/Wonder_3_0_0_Branch >> origin/Wonder_4_0_0_Branch >> origin/Wonder_4_5_0_Branch >> origin/Wonder_5_0_0_Legacy >> origin/Wonder_5_0_0_WebObjects_5_3_Branch >> origin/Wonder_5_0_0_WebObjects_5_4_3_1_Branch >> origin/Wonder_5_0_0_WebObjects_5_4_Branch >> origin/Wonder_5_0_0_WebObjects_5_5_Branch >> origin/Wonder_5_0_0_WebObjects_5_6_Branch >> origin/Wonder_for_Maven_experiments >> origin/gh-pages >> origin/master >> origin/patrice >> >> What is the difference between master and >> origin/Wonder_5_0_0_WebObjects_5_4_Branch ? >> >> origin/Wonder_5_0_0_Legacy and origin/Wonder_5_0_0_WebObjects_5_3_Branch ? >> >> origin/Wonder_5_0_0_WebObjects_5_4_3_1_Branch and >> origin/Wonder_5_0_0_WebObjects_5_4_Branch ? >> >> Thanks, _______________________________________________ >> Do not post admin requests to the list.
