Where are all the pvops branches?

Where are all the pvops branches?

[Keir Fraser]

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?

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.

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.

if you want to track a remote branch, you probably want:

"git checkout --track origin/xen/stable"

which means you want to create a "xen/stable" local branch that track 
the xen/stable branch on the "origin" remote (each time you pull 
origin/xen/stable it will merge it automatically in your local 
xen/stable branch).

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"
