[PATCH] Documentation: Mention that 'bisect' is reserved branch name

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



"git bisect" uses 'bisect' branch to carry out it's operations.
However "git branch" documentation does mention it.
Add a note that 'bisect' can not be used as generic branch
name by the user.
