Is there a way I can achieve this behavior with git? There are several ways, actually. The one I prefer to use is to commit the modifications. Then, you can use git-reset HEAD^ to drop that temporary commit when you come back to this branch, or git-commit --amend to modify it. Always keep in mind that in git's world, history is not set in stone, you can always modify previous commits, reorder them or merge them, as long as you have not pushed them to your public repository (in your case, the SVN one). -- 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
