you need to make a branch
git checkout -b Eliot "that will make a branch at the current HEAD/commit point with any of your pending changing"
stage & commit any work to the Eliot branch
checkout Cog
merge Eliot "To merge any changes into Cog"
push Cog back to github.

I'm stuck. Don't know how I detached from the master. I'm seeing this:
You are in 'detached HEAD' state. You can look around, make experimental changes and commit them, and you can discard any commits you make in this state without impacting any branches by performing another checkout.
If you want to create a new branch to retain commits you create, you may do so (now or later) by using -b with the checkout command again. Example:
git checkout -b <new-branch-name>
HEAD is now at ed4a499... CogVM source as per VMMaker.oscog-eem.1958
I want to make this the new master, and then add a commit. I'm stuck. Git mavens, help please.
