Is there a way to see all the branches of only this remote older_develop repository graphically in gitk - something that shows me the same thing that doing a 'gitk --all' would have shown had I done it from the older_develop repository itself ? If I say 'gitk --all' (in new_develop) it shows me all the branches (local as well as remote). Specifying 'gitk --remotes' also shows all the remote branches (not just from the old_develop remote repo) ? Is there some other way that I am missing ? I have seen the man page of git-rev-list too but there doesn't sem to be a way to do it. Regards, Aneesh ``` ## Johannes Sixt, 2009-03-06 08:04 Subject: Re: Gitk - Seeing just a specific remote ?

That was exactly what I was looking for. ```
