Hi 

The following drives me crazy. I have cloned a git repository whose
graph looks like.



@  changeset:   195:b2396f3ceca3
|  bookmark:    strings
|  tag:         default/strings
|  tag:         tip
|  user:        User1
|  date:        Sun Oct 06 21:41:11 2019 -0400
|  summary:     Fix spurious character inseted.

|  date:        Sun Oct 06 21:40:06 2019 -0400
|  summary:     In matlab-mode, setup `forward-sexp-function' so any random tools using it (like blink-paren-mode) will

|  user:        User1
|  date:        Thu Oct 03 21:15:41 2019 -0400

o  changeset:   170:6c03da83e522
|  bookmark:    master
|  tag:         default/master
|  user:        Uwe Brauer <oub at mat.ucm.es>
|  date:        Fri Sep 28 17:26:26 2018 +0200
|  summary:     Add support for Strings in matlab mode (thanks to Eric Ludlam)
|

So in git speech I have 2 branches, the master (default) branch HASH 6c03 and 

And the string branch  HASH b2396f3ceca3. 

The history in the repository is  linear.

Now I want to merge  the strings branch into the master branch.

So I thought of just moving the master bookmark to tip, if I do that
than there is nothing to push. So I deleted the strings bookmark on tip,
but again nothing to push. The tags default/master and default/strings
confuse me, but I cannot delete them.

I am stuck. [1]
