Subject: newbie branch repo migration question
Date: Wed, 23 Jan 2008 11:03:53 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1201104233.3001.123.camel@gandalf.cobite.com> (raw)

Hi,

Suppose I have a local repo with a branch, 'master'.  And I create a
branch based on it called, 'topic1'.  And I work and commit etc., make
changes on 'master' and merge them back and forth etc.

Now I want to move the 'master' to a remote repository, but not
'topic1', and then I want to switch 'topic1' as a branch of the remote
'master' and not the local one.  In fact, I want to 'get rid' of master
locally (or, rather, have 'master' be a tracking branch of
remotes/foo/master).

How is this accomplished?

Thanks,
David
