[details] Thanks for the tip. The method you mention is indeed almost equivalent to using "git branch"; the latter also updates .git/logs/refs/heads. The real question is whether or not it is wise to omit the conventional branch =E2=80=98master=E2=80=99 in the first place. After some reflection (and reading your and others' comments), i've decided that the hassle of having to explain this unconventional arrangement as well as its workaround while savannah support evolves towards generality outweighs the aesthetic benefit. So, for (both Guile-WWW and) Guile-PG, i've re-added branch =E2=80=98master=E2=80=99, to be synchronized every so often with branch =E2= =80=98p=E2=80=99. These are all just node names, anyway. Thanks to everyone who hit me w/ the clue bat. We now return you to your regularly scheduled "git clone" + "hack away" program. thi
