Ah wait, are you using lilydev (or did you follow the CG git
instructions)?  If you got the master branch specifically instead
of doing a general git clone, then you won't have those branches.

The simplest way to get them is to do a git clone.  There's a way
to add specific branches to your existing git tree, so if you feel
like hunting around through git docs and blogs and stuff, I'm sure
you can find it there.  Actually, I vaguely recall that there's
something in the CG about adding branches... in the old days, we
had web/ on a separate branch, so we needed instructions about
that.


I suppose we should update the CG git instructions to use git
clone rather than the master-branch-only method.
