Hi,
I've tried creating a 'next' branch where I merge each change from local
and/or external, and this seems to work, but the history gets very
cluttered with merge commits.
You could cherry-pick commits from local and/or external instead of
merging. See git-cherry-pick(1).
The problem is that this makes future merges more difficult, since there
isn't a history between the trees. Our 'local' branch really is a merge of
the two.
Once I cherry pick anything, that branch has divergent history from the
other branches, and I have to cherry pick from then on (or merge from then
on).
