OK, if you're on master, it's pretty easy:
$ git branch test-branch
$ git checkout test-branch
$ git pull git://git.kernel.dk/linux-2.6-block.git for-linus
[build, boot, test]
$ git checkout master
$ git branch -D test-branch

for-linus is the right branch, but I'm just a little worried that you
didn't test what you think you tested. What does cat .git/HEAD say? If
that is a ref to a file (eg refs/heads/master), what does that file
contain?
