Hello,
shouldn't " at the tip of one of your branches" better written as " at the
top of one of your branches".
BTW one question: I run a simple test unit (only build tests) against the
latest git tree, which is updated with "git pull" once a day.
If I want to make some tests with a previous kernel version - say v2.6.20 and
switch then back to HEAD to continue with my common test suite, would the
following be ok : ?
$> git checkout v2.6.20
This will change HEAD to be a detached checkout of v2.6.20
$> <do something useful with it>
$> git reset
This will not change HEAD back.
something like this perhaps?
$> MY_HEAD=$(git symbolic-ref HEAD)
$> git checkout v2.6.20
$> <...>
$> git reset --hard $MY_HEAD
no doubt there is a more cunning method ...
