Last week I saw somebody (I think it was Shawn) mentioned a trick: git push . thisbranch:thatbranch will moves thatbranch to thisbranch iff thisbranch is a descendant of thatbranch. So doing git push . for-master:master instead of that checkout + merge command sequence would obviously be a good solution for your particular use case. Having said that it may make sense to swap the order so that the diffstat is shown first and then a single line "Merge made by recursive" or "Updatting A..B, Fast Forward" concludes the report. At least, I do not think such a swapping would hurt the usability, although people used to the UI may first feel uneasy. I would not object to such a patch in principle. - 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
