I never knew of the local remote tracking branches in git until now. I just went and looked it up and found this post that explains it more http://longair.net/blog/2009/04/16/git-fetch-and-merge/ http://longair.net/blog/2009/04/16/git-fetch-and-merge/ git branch -r will show all the remote tracking branches I had no idea existed.
