Is it possible in git to configure a default <start-point> for the git-branch command? For some workflows it could be useful to define e.g. a remote-tracking branch as the default <start-point> for new branches. Then there would be a tracking configuration for each created branch and tools like ALM tools could easily determine the remote repository. For EGit-/JGit-development there is a proposal in Gerrit to add a new config parameter workflow.defaultsourceref (http://egit.eclipse.org/r/#change,4168). I suggested to use workflow.branchstartpoint instead. What do you think about such a property? -- 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
