I have been having trouble with the following workflow. I am trying to push changes to a remote from a branch that is tracking it.
Is there a better way to do this? Basically I want to push from the branch to the remote. But it doesn't seem to work at least without pushing the branch itself as a new head to the remote. Perhaps the better way to do it is to have two different directories: 1) clone the linux-devel.git and have a read-only remote to linux-stable to fetch changes and cherry-pick. 2) clone the linux-stable.git and have a read-only remote to linux-devel to fetch changes and cherry-pick So you would just cd to the specific one you want to work with.

git clone git://mysite.com/data/git/linux-devel.git linux-devel cd linux-devel git remote add -m master -f linux-stable git://mysite.com/data/git/linux-stable.git git branch -r linux-stable/HEAD linux-stable/master origin/HEAD origin/master git checkout -b stable linux-stable/master git cherry-pick b3b1eea69a (a commit from linux-devel) git push linux-stable error: remote 'refs/heads/master' is not a strict subset of local ref 'refs/heads/master'. maybe you are not up-to-date and need to pull first? error: failed to push to 'git://mysite.com/data/git/linux-stable.git' Thanks for your help, Sean
