From 8b3f3f84b27e6bbac1b1558166b44431a8e78bb1 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Matthieu Moy Date: Tue, 2 Nov 2010 16:31:23 +0100 Subject: Change "tracking branch" to "remote-tracking branch" One more step towards consistancy. We change the documentation and the C code in a single patch, since the only instances in the C code are in comment and usage strings.
