Subject: user manual question
Date: Sun, 28 Dec 2008 11:07:54 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <gj7mmo$fvk$4@ger.gmane.org> (raw)

Under "Examining an old version without creating a new branch" subsection in 
chapter1

to aid my understanding, could the statement:

"The HEAD then refers to the SHA1 of the commit instead of to a branch, and 
git branch shows that you are no longer on a branch:"

be restated more explicitly as:

"The HEAD then refers to the SHA1 of the commit instead of to a branch head, 
and git branch shows that you are no longer on a branch head:"

?
