Re: [savannah-help-public] GSL: switching from bzr to git

[Patrick Alken]

Hi Bob,

  Thanks for your help earlier. We have imported a new git repository, 
under the branch 'master' - it looks like you changed the old repository 
to 'oldmaster'. Unfortunately when we do a clone of the repository, the 
default branch appears to be 'oldmaster' instead of 'master'. I don't 
know any way to change this remotely - is this something you can do for us?

The command appears to be:

git symbolic-ref HEAD refs/heads/master

however this may need to be done directly on the savannah repository.

Many thanks,
Patrick
