You're right, branching is a real part, that's why you would start the foo-1.1 work on a topic branch, and only merge it into origin/F-12 when you're ready to build it and push it through bodhi. Just like you'd work on a new feature on a feature branch and only bring it over to origin/master when you're ready to merge it with everything else. Treat the origin/F-?? as the master for that release, do your long running not immediately ready for build work on topic branches thereof and only merge them when you're ready to build. This reduces the surprise should another developer need to quickly build out an update that is unrelated to any major change you may have cooking. -- Jesse Keating Fedora -- Freedom² is a feature! identi.ca: http://identi.ca/jkeating
