    - To know the current branch, "git branch" is enough (the one '*'-ed)
    - rsync(1) a repository is dangerous, it might catch it in the middle of
      a update and give you an incomplete/messed up copy. Repeat rsync until no
      change, perhaps?
    - I understand "git checkout -f" blows away any local changes, no questions
      asked. Not very nice to suggest that to a newbie...

    Thanks for the docu!
