Remotes

• Folks imagine there is a local branch and a remote branch

• And push and fetch copy them back and forth

• Nope!

• There are two local branches

• origin/dev is the tracking branch

• It's the local copy

• of the last known state of the remote branch

        git fetch    origin dev

        git rebase   origin/dev
        git merge    origin/dev
        git checkout origin/dev
        git log      origin/dev

        git push     origin dev
