I think bundles or email or both is likely to be the correct solution, but you should know that you don't need a shared server if you each have a server the other can read from. Each of you sets up a public repository with the same basic history, and you each have local clones of your public repository, and you pull from the other into your local clone and (assuming you want to accept the other's changes) you do the merge and push to your own public server. In fact, having a shared server is vaguely discouraged, since it means there's a repository that's no single individual's responsibility; it's just that it's often the case that the existing social structure is based on a group of co-maintainers of a single series. -Daniel *This .sig left intentionally blank* - 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
