Is there anything I can add to the refspec to make the name unique? E.g. - for merging "git merge --no-ff refs/branches/test" works, but generates a not so nice default merge message. ("merged commit refs/branches/test" instead of "merged branch test") - how to drop a remote tag/branch ("git push origin :test" does not work) -- Best regards, Sven Strickroth ClamAV, a GPL anti-virus toolkit http://www.clamav.net PGP key id F5A9D4C4 @ any key-server
