Hello, Can somebody explain the meaning of next and pu branches and some documenation about using topic branches. My development model use two branches now: stable release and develment branch. All changes in the stable release branch are bug-fix only changes. All (or most) of them must go to development release. Now I do this using cherry-pick but it is not easy to track what was merged especialy when merge pruduce confic resloved by hands. Stable branch live long life, much more than 100 commits. It seems topic branches can help me here, but reading Documentation under git sources teach to make topic branch from the branch point and then merge it to both branches. This can work while stable branch has short life and was not heavily rewritten. If there any technique that can help me ? - 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
