(On a side note I've found it useful to add actual copy/pastable commands with all such instructions. That increases the likelyhood of people actually following the instructions (I know the actual instructions are two messages earlier in the thread, but people will not necessarily go there, or if they do, spend time figuring out which of those commands are the ones you list above). Git has so many possibilities, it is best learnt "by absorption"... or at least: use it a lot, then read the "Pro git" book) My personal preference is to just leave the other remote hanging around. It does no harm, and I can study the branches there if I should feel the urge. I also prefer to work with branches, and almost(*) exclusively using merge. (*) I rebase/cherry-pick when taking changes back to old branches, and when I've messed up a "fake merge", and git insists that it won't merge because the target branch is alreayd up to date...
