I clone my source using git clone https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/p/mediawiki/core.git w/
. Then I specify a specific branch/tag by doing git checkout <tag name>
or git checkout origin/REL<release number>
. Sometimes I forget what branch or tag I'm on.
In SVN I would do a svn info
to figure out what branch/tag I'm using (I realize that git has distinct definitions for branch
and tag
but for my purposes they are the same).
