Pull a certain branch only

[hgierer]

Using the mercurial command line I can do the following to pull a certain remote branch into my project (leaving out all the other branches that may exist there):

hg pull -b default http://macserver.cellent.int:8000/scs/

Is there a way to do the same with SourceTree ?

No matter what I tried so far, I always got the complete remote project pulled over - including all branches. I even tried to select the branch in the advanced pull options with no effect.

Hi Heiko,

You're right, for some reason it's not honouring that preference when it should be. I've logged it in JAC here: https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/SRCTREE-1672

Many thanks

Just to follow this up, the branch selection won't actually work because you're using the fetch extension. It's still a bug on our part as we shouldn't allow branch selections if you're using the fetch extension. I've disabled the option is the fetch extension is being used from this screen.

Cheers

Is this for Windows or Mac?
