@ -111,6 +111,17 @@ branch::
a particular revision, which is called the branch head. The
branch heads are stored in `$GIT_DIR/refs/heads/`.
master::
The default branch. Whenever you create a git repository, a branch
named "master" is created, and becomes the active branch. In most
cases, this contains the local development.
origin::
The default upstream branch. Most projects have one upstream
project which they track, and by default 'origin' is used for
that purpose. New updates from upstream will be fetched into
this branch; you should never commit to it yourself.
ref::
A 40-byte hex representation of a SHA1 pointing to a particular
object. These may be stored in `$GIT_DIR/refs/`.
