Hmm, this leaves me a bit confused. :( Suppose (where time flows left to right), I have this history: E -- F -- G [topic] / A -- B -- C -- D [master] If I am on branch master and use ‘git merge topic’, then all the changes from A to G get applied to master to form the merge commit. So it is not clear to me what it means to merge only the last patch on a branch. Jonathan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
