Hi Jake, this worked! Your explanation seems correct - I could still list the remote branches, thanks to the command that Philip suggested, but the linkage between the two was not there by default for some reason. Very strange, I have never seen that happen before. Anyway, this solution is sound and seems to set everything (history etc) back to how it should be. Thanks very much for your help! Paul
