I keep another branch on top of my "public" svn commits for local stuff. If I always run git-svn dcommit from the public branch, the local changes will stay local. After committing, I just have to rebase the local branch on onto git-svn. -- -Steven Walter <stevenrwalter@xxxxxxxxx> "A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly.
