When I do the “git pull origin master”, I come up short with this:

fatal: Couldn’t find remote ref master

How can that be?

These are my favorite blog entries. They come up in the top of a Google search, they are short and sweet, and they work.

Rock on.

"if you then get:
You asked me to pull without telling me which branch you want to merge with"

If this happens to you, you need to specify the branch you want to pull. This will normally be master, as in:

git pull origin master

It’s not that simple if you then get:
You asked me to pull without telling me which branch you
want to merge with, and ‘branch.master.merge’ in
