I can see that the remote heads are where they are supposed to be but no local tracking heads are created (by default). I had to do this manually.

Old behavior was that git did that for you automatically. So I suppose this is another newbie protection.

What is the now the new, accepted way of tracking locally remote branches? (other than creating them manually in refs/heads?)

Thanks,
