It checkouts the branch named integration in the remote git repo, instead of the default (which could be anything, but usually called master). I didn't realize... that option must have been added "recently". > I did it without that, > based on a post from July that I found in the archives.

You can see the remote branches you have with "git branch -r". Developers using git tend to use lots of branches and then throw them away. You just kind of have to follow along and see where the commits are happening, which I leave as an exercise to the reader as the thread is going offtopic. :) _______________________________________________ Pan-users mailing list Pan-users@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/pan-users
