How do you get git to always pull from a specific branch? - ...     http://stackoverflow.com/questions/658885/how-do-you-get-git...     tags: git hostmon A web-focused Git workflow     I’ve finally arrived at a web-focused Git workflow that’s simple, flexible and easy to use. Some key advantages: Pushing remote changes automatically updates the live site Server-based site edits won’t break history Simple, no special commit rules or requirements Works with existing sites, no need to redeploy or move files Overview The key idea in this system is that the web site exists on the server as a pair of repositories; a bare repository alongside a conventional repository containing the live site. Two simple Git hooks link the pair, automatically pushing and pulling changes between them.     http://joemaller.com/2008/11/25/a-web-focused-git-workflow/     tags: git hostmon
