Re: [ptp-dev] Merge policy reminder


I've just has a couple updates since the git conversion so I'm not sure if my process is a correct way to handle commits

I cloned the git repository twice, selecting only ptp_5_0 for one clone and only master for the second
I created two workspaces, one pointing to the ptp_5_0 clone and the second to the master clone
Before changing code I'll run a pull to make sure I have latest git code in my clone repository
I'll make my changes and test in one workspace until I am satisfied I have working code
Then I'll commit/push the changes in that repository
After that I manually make changes in the second workspace, retest as needed, then commit/push those changes

I realize this is probably not the most efficient way to do things, but at the moment I'm not working on a lot of changes and the whole git concept is new to me. So this sequence works for me as long as I'm not doing anything that breaks the process and causes later merge problems.

I'd like to remind everyone that every time you commit something to ptp_5_0 you need to take some action to either merge or reject the changes on the master branch. If you don't do this, then the next poor sucker (usually me) has to try and resolve all the merge conflicts that are created.

Thanks!

Greg
