From: Junio C Hamano Date: Fri, 29 Dec 2006 00:32:17 GMT Subject: [PATCH 2/2] Allow non-fast-forward of remote tracking branches in default clone Message-ID: <7vk60btucu.fsf_-_@assigned-by-dhcp.cox.net> In-Reply-To: <7vzm97tzbt.fsf@assigned-by-dhcp.cox.net> This changes the default remote.origin.fetch configuration created by git-clone so that it allows non-fast-forward updates. When using the separate-remote layout with reflog enabled, it does not make much sense to refuse to update the remote tracking branch just because some of them do not fast-forward. git-fetch issues warnings on non-fast-forwardness, and the user can peek at what the previous state was using the reflog.
