Hi Erik, Nothing is really wrong there, is just for an philosophical criteria based on best practices of git.
Currently, you and rest of apache flex team, maintains your branches updated using a commit merge node from latest commit on develop, isn’t it?. Well, this practice cause a big complexity on tree node and a messy traceability of branch content. I was proposing you another way, using a combination of git-rebase and git-merge operations, in order to use git-rebase onto develop to maintain your branch updated, and git-merge to apply the complete final change-set on develop when developing is finished. But, as I told you, it was a simple proposal only, and if you don't feel like to adopt it, just forget it and remove the proposed branch. I did the push to allow you can see the result of the proposed way vs your currently way at same time, on commits tree.
