Outside of that, if you have commit access to a specific branch, but not master, you are allowed to create branches within that name space, eg if you have commit rights to f13 but not master, you can create branches under f13/<branchname>. Again you cannot conflict with f13/master. However, since git allows you to create local branches at will without any restrictions, one has to ask if it is still necessary to have a remote branch for your work. - -- Jesse Keating Fedora -- Freedom² is a feature! identi.ca: http://identi.ca/jkeating -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.9 (Darwin) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAkxsKUQACgkQ4v2HLvE71NXpMQCeMPidJkbFTsFOIffaGRXgcIPc Hx8AoJLVsPgIFoovTrgc4K/xjsYrWkC9 =WpXr -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
