Hi,

I used to pull using version 1.4.x from Linus tree but with version
1.5.x I can't get
it upp and running in the same way.

git-pull complains about:
'No merge candidate founde because value of config option" branch.my.merge
I tried git-config --add ... with orgin and master but no luck.

I also seems to be stuck on version 2.6.21 on my branch. First pull
picked up a lot of changes but did no merge it into my tree.
What should I do to get git-pull working and at the same time merge
the stuff and roll my branch forward to the latest version?

git-pull  -> Warns about merge candidate
git-pull . master -> Says up to date
git-status -> Only list 3 files not commited due to changes I did.
