I think it makes sense to disallow removing official branches (f13, f14, master) to make sure people don't change the history of branches which are used for release builds. On the other hand, for topic branches and personal branches I would very much like to be able to do non fast-forward pushes and to be able to delete them. With git it's common to create branches for preparing a feature and merge them into the official branch once the feature is ready. Allowing non fast-forward pushes in unofficial branches would make it much easier to prepare a perfect history before merging it into the official branches. -- Regards, Kalev -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
