Re: git intro request



No, the only branch that shows up with 'git-branch' is master. I don't want to create my own branch. I want to track the xorg- server-1.2-apple branch that Ben started. I see it listed under 'heads' on gitweb here:

http://gitweb.freedesktop.org/?p=xorg/xserver.git

Is that a valid branch or tag name?
as in, does it show up in git-branch -a or git-tag?

If not, the error message is accurate. And if you want to make commits,
you'll wnat to make a local branch that starts at a remote branch commit,
like:


       git-branch -b mybranch [remote branch id here]
