</div>I am tried your idea and not working. Really weird, seems I am not<br>
using the correct commands.<br>
The commands I am using are<br>
1.git branch next<br>
2.git remote add -t master -f next<br>
git://<a href="http://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sfr/linux-next.git" target="_blank">git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sfr/linux-next.git</a><br>
<br>
And that's it. I hit the git message of this,<br>
<br>
usage: git remote add [<options>] <name> <url><br>
<br>
-f, --fetch fetch the remote branches<br>
--tags import all tags and associated objects when fetching<br>
or do not fetch any tag at all (--no-tags)<br>
-t, --track <branch> branch(es) to track<br>
-m, --master <branch><br>
master branch<br>
--mirror[=<push|fetch>]<br>
set up remote as a mirror to push to or fetch from<br>
