And just from half-wittedly fooling around, I tried:

machine_2$ git pull origin webservices
Password:
 From fritza@fritzanderson.uchicago.edu:/Users/fritza/scientia/scientia
  * branch            webservices -> FETCH_HEAD
Updating 3c86901..6b09f9f
Fast forward
  Calendar/Classes/CalendarWebController.m |    2 ++
# etc.
  dirserver/lib/ldaputils.rb               |   15 +++++----------
  6 files changed, 34 insertions(+), 17 deletions(-)
machine_2$ sudo /usr/local/bin/git branch
* master
machine_2$

This seems to mean that master on machine_2 is now congruent to webservices on machine_1. That's not what I meant. Is there a way to undo this? git-pull origin-master doesn't seem to do anything.
