"git fetch" and "git remote update" do not produce conflicts.

Ok, that simplifies everything. Just cherry-pick (see "git cherry-pick") your commits on new upstream. You might find it easiest if you cherry-pick them on commits in new upstream which correspond the old-upstream exactly. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
