That doesn't work in git AFAIK. What you can do is list all branches that you like to pull in .git/config. The following example if from my gcc git tree, but you get the idea: [remote "origin"] url = git://gcc.gnu.org/git/gcc.git fetch = refs/heads/master:refs/remotes/origin/master fetch = refs/heads/gcc-4_7-branch:refs/remotes/origin/gcc-4_7-branch fetch = refs/heads/gcc-4_8-branch:refs/remotes/origin/gcc-4_8-branch -- Markus
