Hi,
Could someone please point me to / give me the rationale for the "Never
commit to the right side of a Pull line" rule ?
I found the rule in the second Note of the git-fetch man-page (eg
http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/git-fetch.html).
It's been taken over in _bold letters_ by X.Org/freedesktop.org in their
"UsingGit" document (http://freedesktop.org/wiki/UsingGit).
In both places though, I don't see any explanation, but rather a
commandment ;-) . Am I missing the ovious ?
My candid thoughts: to me the practice recommended here seems
subjectively "cleaner" indeed, but is it objectively better or even
essential? Why?
TIA
Jérôme
