specifying git branch for remote

Question

I\'m trying to update my webbynode pulling from github but I got the message below:

You asked to pull from the remote \'git@github.com:sigbackup/gsapp

Answer 1

It's strange that you have a branch called origin. origin is used to name a remote automatically created during git clone; you will get in troubles having to disambiguate origin-the-branch and origin-the-remote. Did you add the branch manually to the .git/config? What commands did you run? I suspect that you messed this up.
