Tried: mikesol@mikesol-laptop:~/lilypond-git$ git remote add -ft dev/staging -m dev/staging origin/dev/staging git://git.sv.gnu.org/lilypond.git/ Updating origin/dev/staging >From git://git.sv.gnu.org/lilypond * [new branch] dev/staging -> origin/dev/staging/dev/staging mikesol@mikesol-laptop:~/lilypond-git$ git branch -r origin/dev/staging/HEAD -> origin/dev/staging/dev/staging origin/dev/staging/dev/staging origin/master staging/HEAD -> staging/dev/staging then, realized this was not what I wanted either, so mikesol@mikesol-laptop:~/lilypond-git$ git branch -Dr origin/dev/staging/dev/staging Deleted remote branch origin/dev/staging/dev/staging (was 1cef8d5). mikesol@mikesol-laptop:~/lilypond-git$ git branch -r origin/dev/staging/HEAD -> origin/dev/staging/dev/staging origin/master staging/HEAD -> staging/dev/staging And now I have two extra branches (staging/HEAD and origin/dev/staging/HEAD) that I can't seem to get rid of. Any suggestions? Cheers, MS _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
