On this topic, I have a question: how do I get to see all the
netdev-2.6 branches ?
After cloning a free netdev-2.6 tree, 'git branch' shows only the
master branch:
...
Cloning
"git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jgarzik/netdev-2.6.git"
into "netdev-2.6-fresh"...
Initialized empty Git repository in /opt/sources/netdev-2.6-fresh/.git/
...
100% (23058/23058) done
done
-bash-3.1$ cd netdev-2.6-fresh/
-bash-3.1$ git branch
* master
At this point,
$ git branch -r
will show you have copies of Jeff's branches in remotes/origin/.
$ git checkout -b upstream origin/upstream
would make your local upstream branch that forks from Jeff's upstream
branch.
