Hi,
Is there a way, with Git, to specify a tracking branch on a per-remote basis?
At the moment, I can configure a tracking branch to let me just type
$ git pull
when I want to say
$ git pull origin master
Now, assume I have another remote "foo", I'd like to be able to just say
$ git pull foo
and put something in my .git/config so that Git knows I mean
$ git pull foo master
Is there a simple way to do that?
(for the motivation: I mostly use Git with a 1-branch-per-repo setup, so in 99% of my use-cases, when I have to specify a branch, it's master).
Thanks,
