Have the script use "export GIT_INDEX_FILE=.git/temp-branch-index" so that it stages changes into an index which isn't the main one, and thus has no impact on the main branch. Thus you can still commit a subset of the temp branch at any time. Actually you can do something like this: export GIT_INDEX_FILE=.git/temp-branch-index && cp .git/index $GIT_INDEX_FILE && git add . && git add -u && git update-ref refs/heads/temp $(date | git commit-tree $(git write-tree) -p temp) ;-) -- Shawn. -- 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
