Chirag: Are you sure about this. I thought that when you cloned a repository it would come with all its branches, and all that the OP should need to do is git checkout <branch_name> OP: if you have gitk installed (if you have not then do so, and also git-gui) then try gitk --all and it should show you all the history and branches in the cloned repository Colin Colin > > Chirag > http://sumeruonrails.com > > > On Fri, Sep 23, 2011 at 10:21 AM, 7stud -- <li...@ruby-forum.com> wrote: >> >> Chirag Singhal wrote in post #1023053: >> > First you have to setup your laptop for git usage similar to what you >> > had >> > done for your PC. >> > 1.
