[llvm-dev] [7.0.0 Release] The release branch is open; trunk is now 8.0.0

[Martin J. O'Riordan via llvm-dev]

Hi Tim, I missed that detail when reading my O'Reilly book on GIT :-)  I now see:

$ git branch -a
  martino
  master
* release_70
  remotes/origin/HEAD -> origin/master
  remotes/origin/master
  remotes/origin/release_30
  remotes/origin/release_31
  remotes/origin/release_32
  remotes/origin/release_33
  remotes/origin/release_34
  remotes/origin/release_35
  remotes/origin/release_36
  remotes/origin/release_37
  remotes/origin/release_38
  remotes/origin/release_39
  remotes/origin/release_40
  remotes/origin/release_50
  remotes/origin/release_60
  remotes/origin/release_70

[all the 'remotes/*' are in 'red' on my display which presumably means not local]

Thanks for your detailed instructions, very much appreciated,

	MartinO

Hi Martin,

By default "git branch" only lists local branches. "git branch -a"
will list all of them, including (for me) "remotes/origin/release_70".
If you just type "git checkout release_70" git will probably automatically detect it and set the local branch up to track it.

There won't be any 7.0.0 tags yet because we don't know what revision it will be.

Cheers.

Tim.
