25 portage # cd /usr/local/portage/layman/perl-experimental
26 perl-experimental # git checkout -b alternatives alternatives
27 fatal: git checkout: updating paths is incompatible with switching branches.
28 Did you intend to checkout 'alternatives' which can not be resolved as
29 commit?

32 I think you mean
33
34 git checkout -b alternatives
35 git pull origin alternatives
36
37 ?
38
39 But now layman -S give me error :(

41 From git://git.overlays.gentoo.org/proj/perl-overlay
42 3ddbd1a..43666a7 master -> origin/master
43 You asked me to pull without telling me which branch you
44 want to merge with, and 'branch.alternatives.merge' in
45 your configuration file does not tell me either. Please
46 specify which branch you want to merge on the command line and
47 try again (e.g. 'git pull <repository> <refspec>').
48 See git-pull(1) for details.

51 What am I doing wrong?
52
53 Anyway, thanks for advice :)

55 P.S.
56 5.10.1 out - woohoo :)
