How to manage merges from one line while excluding its merges from another

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I have a tree like this:

     G---H---I---J---K   devel
    /       /       /
A---B---C---D---E---F    main
        \
         L---M---N---O   my


The 'my' branch forked off the 'main' line and for reasons out of my control cannot merge the 'main' changes (D,E,F) back.

The 'devel' line is a another line that I need to track and merge from, but I only want the changes local to that branch that are not on from the mainline. i.e., I only want commits G,H,J.

I want to continue to merge from the devel line as additional commits
are made that are not on the main branch, but I do not want any of the future merge commits.

Is there an automated way to do this or do I have to cherry pick everything by hand?

Thanks,
Lane
