I work roughly similar. I hack away on a branch that contains all kinds of ugly and unfinished changes. Then to get more organized, I create another branch (off of master) and merge or cherry-pick the changes from the other branch. The git manual describes this in the "creating the perfect patch series" chapter. > But I > couldn't find how to go back to the remote master > except by cloning several times. Hmm. Do you mean something like git checkout [-b newbranch] origin/master ? > I'm try to be more gitty from now on, and stop being svnish. ;-) Cheers, Ralf
