Hi Marc,

I would remember I just had to do "git checkout 
origin/lilypond/translation" to obtain the lilypond/translation branch, 
so the origin was the critical thing here.

Now when I do git pull origin it pulls all changes but checks out only 
the changes on the branch I currently am.
Say you have checked out lilypond/translation once. Now you are on 
master. Now with git checktout lilypond/translation I switch to my local 
translation branch and again with pull origin it updates also the 
translation branch.

Hope this was clear enough and I remember things right.
