Subject: git pull for update of netdev fails.
Date: Wed, 20 Sep 2006 08:03:08 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20060920080308.673a1e93@localhost.localdomain> (raw)

Jeff, you use branches on the netdev tree, but GIT doesn't seem to like
to sync these up properly. My normal method is to keep a clone'd version
of the netdev tree and use pull to resync it. I don't do any changes
to that tree.

This doesn't work with all the branches for some reason. Is this a git
bug?

* refs/heads/origin: fast forward to branch 'master' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jgarzik/netdev-2.6
  from f04b92e97d21b1921c91ec1d6d5e8bbf8606b77a to e478bec0ba0a83a48a0f6982934b6de079e7e6b3
* refs/heads/e100-sbit: does not fast forward to branch 'e100-sbit' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jgarzik/netdev-2.6;
  not updating.

A temporary workaround is to prune the offending branches locally
first, but that seems like a hack.
