So I cloned git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jeremy/xen.git but the result of ''git branch'' is to list only xen/master, and if I try things like ''git checkout xen/stable'' then I get told there is no such branch. What stupid thing am I doing wrong? -- Keir _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel

What > stupid thing am I doing wrong?You need "git branch -r" to show remote branches. xen/master needs to be prepended by the remote name, which defaults to origin unless you have been doing clever things with "git remote". Try "git checkout -b xen/stable origin/xen/stable" to checkout origin/xen/stable into a local branch called xen/stable.

[Xen-devel] Backport changeset 21002:7ed57b6e4cd to xen 3.4.3
I believe changeset 21002:7ed57b6e4cd "pygrub: Fix grub2 support when
config is on a separate /boot partition" makes sense to pull into
xen-3.4-testing.hg
Boris.
P.S. It works fine.

Ian''s command only creates a local "xen/stable" at the same reference that origin/xen/stable is pointing too, but doesn''t add the policy about pull. you can easily add the tracking a-posteriori with: "git branch --track xen/stable origin/xen/stable" -- Vincent _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel
