Hi all

Thanks for taking care of this issue.

However, I wonder how we can prevent such issues in the future and
wondering if this "incident" has its orginos by our current git workflow.

I find the workflow "commit to stable branch --> merge back to master"
is inconvenient. Because at one point, the branches divert too much
(think of refactorings on master branch) and a merge back to the master
would not work or would break.

In most of the project I work with, there are stable-branches as well
but any fix (and feature of course) has to be on master first. Any
serious fix could be cherry picked to stable branches (there may be more
than one) if applicable or an alternative fix could be made. stable
branches never receives merges from or to master branch.

To be honest, I haven't seen any project adopting this workflow, I
wondered why and how come we have this workflow.

Thanks for clarification.

René
