I'm working remotely over a VERY slow line. When I do a push it starts out fine but after the 15 seconds it takes to push it fails with non-fast-forward merge. So I pull (no merge needed, its fast-forward) and try push again. Fails again. I can keep this up for hours on end; pushing, pulling, pushing, pulling. Apparently there is fast and furious development on the branch I'm on that during my 15 seconds of pushing someone else on-site pushes and adds new commits before mine can finish. Is there anyway to lock the repository while my push is going on ? Please don't ask why I have a slow line or why the volume of changes that I am pushing. Suffice it to say its military work. -- 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
