Erik, The content in the two branches are exactly the same, but the new branch is composed by clean commits only, without any merge-commit in their change set. In your current branch, we have a serie of merge-commit in order to maintain the branch updated. Each of those commits contain all changes from develop at point where was created, collapsing on just one commit all relative change-set from develop until that point.
In your case, the current branch has been contaminated with a partial changes from develop and your commits are less readable and reusables using this way. In other sort of things... when we use the git-merge as the only way, the complexity of commit tree, grows up exponentially. I hope that is helpful Best regards, ______________________ Jose Barragan Senior Software Engineer Codeoscopic +34 912 94 80 80 http://www.codeoscopic.com On 10 Jul 2014, at 19:09, Erik de Bruin <e...@ixsoftware.nl> wrote: > Jose, > > What is the difference between the 'experimental/VF2JS' and 'VF2JS' remote > branches? > > EdB > > > > > On Thu, Jul 10, 2014 at 6:18 PM, Jose Barragan < > jose.barra...@codeoscopic.com> wrote: > >> Hi Erik, >> >> Sorry about that, you're right. >> >> But after read the atlassian's article, I supposed that I hasn't any good >> reason to maintain the proposal alive, because seems as simply is one of >> two main flavours of work with git, even I keep on thinking that is the >> best, but maybe is just my point of view. >> >> Anyway, just now I remade again the “experimental/VF2JS” branch and push >> it. >> >> Thanks, >> ______________________ >> Jose Barragan >> Senior Software Engineer >> Codeoscopic >> +34 912 94 80 80 >> http://www.codeoscopic.com >> >> On 10 Jul 2014, at 17:32, Erik de Bruin <e...@ixsoftware.nl> wrote: >> >>> Jose, >>> >>> I'm not sure why you just now deleted the new branch you created?
