From ae8285ed63b9cca3324fda6481b2a97a92e3e50d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Michael J Gruber Date: Wed, 15 Sep 2010 22:47:39 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] git-reset.txt: clarify branch vs. branch head "Change the branch" can be misunderstood to mean "change which branch is checked out". Make it clearer that git-reset changes the branch head of the currently checked out branch.
