I noticed that, for some reason, some of my git branches are prefixed with "remotes/origin":
BZ9
* master
remotes/origin/BZ8
remotes/origin/BZ9
remotes/origin/HEAD -> origin/master
remotes/origin/junit1
remotes/origin/master
What is the difference between, for example, the "remotes/origin/BZ9" branch and the BZ9 branch? Clearly, they both originate from the same conceptual branch, but git is considering them to be distinct.
