They already changed between what I thought was the correct branch and
what was the correct branch :-)

Yes. Or whatever it is based on now if that merges OK with Linus' head
(try a test merge).  Just don't base on linux-next :-)

What I want is exactly what you will ask/have asked Linus to fetch but
without the branch name changing .. I care more about the name changing
than the contents changing.

So .. what branch do I fetch tomorrow?  (Hint: if you have your version
for Linus checked out then type "git branch next" and reply to this email
saying "next" :-))
