-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Talking about branching, I think we did effectively have a short-lived "development branch" in the git repository. It is too painful and inefficient to branch in the CVS, not to mention merging the branches afterwards. Had we have lightweight branching and merging like those in svn / svk (I don't know about git), that short-lived development branch could take place in the main repository. However, IMHO, for a large change like this, keeping the entire tree frozen for a little while just before merging really isn't that bad an idea. - -- llwang -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.3 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQFGT4A8CQM7t5B2mhARAtOsAJ4sgGoTABuhU14r0B8r30WvkoUj8gCcDZy1 2GWNHK92tHI5ke23LeSq9lI= =JDI/ -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
