You need to switch your mindset from centralized SVN workflow. The beauty of distributedness is that it redefines the meaning of "to commit". In distributed systems, the act of committing is purely checkpointing and it is not associated with publishing the result to others as centralized systems force you to. Stop thinking like "I need to integrate the changes from upstream into my WIP to keep up to date." You first finish what you are currently doing, at least to the point that it is stable, make a commit to mark that state, and then start thinking about what other people did. You may most likely do a "git fetch" followed by "git rebase" to update your WIP on top of the updated work by others. Once you get used to that, you would not have "a dirty directory" problem. - 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
