Yeah. I had contemplated using the following commands: git config remote.wp.fetch \ "+refs/heads/3.6-branch:refs/remotes/wp/3.6-branch" git config branch.wp.merge "refs/heads/3.6-branch" So is "git remote set-branches" and "git branch --set-upstream-to" just another syntax for making those same changes to git config? Or do the new commands do some additional work on the repository (to better keep track of things, or whatever)?
