one act soliloquy in #github, the one where technoweenie loses his mind

  • technoweenie: hey when you do git branch -a, it seems to cache those somewhere. any idea where?
  • technoweenie: i had a remote named one thing, i renamed the remote in .git/config but the branches still show up under the old remote's name
  • technoweenie: bing! wrong
  • technoweenie: rm -rf .git/refs/remotes/old-remote-name
  • technoweenie: actually dont do that
  • technoweenie: i think i fucked up
  • technoweenie: ok kiddies always use git remote prune, dont edit .git/config manually :)
  • technoweenie: no, prune is for stale branches. i'm an idiot
  • technoweenie: git remote rm and you'll be right as rain
  • technoweenie: aaaaand scene
  • takeo: that was an impressive soliloquy
