Subject: Correct way to pull using subtree merge without guesswork?
Message-ID: <jfmr88$1p8$1@dough.gmane.org>

Hello,

can someone please tell me, if this is the correct syntax for using "git pull" 
to pull in "subtree merging strategy", if I don't want to allow git to guess 
where to do the changes:

git pull -s subtree -X subtree=path/to/subtree externalproject master

Returns with success, but is "-X subtree=" the right way to force a subtree path 
and disallow git to autodetect the subtree?

$ git --version
git version 1.7.4.4

Thank you very much in advance

Yours

Manuel
