That's because your HEAD is pointing to something under refs/heads/*: it would work otherwise. When I'm developing on my personal branch, I sometimes do 'git fetch origin master:master +pu:pu +next:next', and it works as expected. When on master branch, I can't git fetch origin master:master and this is a cute safety feature. Either way, I think it's a bad practice to fetch directly into refs/heads/*: you should really be fetching to refs/remotes and then merging your changes in. I do want shortcuts though, which is why I'm interested in fixing pull: there is nothing to fix in fetch as far as I'm concerned. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
