Hi,

i have a repo cloned from the server with two branches master and qa.

$git remote show origin

tells me that the HEAD branch is master.

When i try to execute

$ git remote set-head origin qa

It prints nothing and "git remote show origin" still prints that HEAD branch is master.

Could you, please, advise if I am i missing something.

I'm working on Linux with git-1.6.4.4

Thanks, Eugene
