What is Mark's Method™? Is it documented anywhere? Overly complicated ;) - and not yet. I'm currently using one checkout per major version because Eclipse can't handle Git worktrees. I think I'd prefer a single checkout with worktrees but until I can try it I don't know. I did try switching to IntelliJ as it can handle Git worktrees but the pain of switching IDEs was greater than the minor annoyance of multiple checkouts so I quickyl returned to Eclipse. I do have a GitHub fork that I intend to use for large patches that need review. I don't use it much. I'm still getting used to my local setup and tweaking the configuration here and there so it does what I want by default when I pull / push etc. I'd suggest sharing Git experiences is a topic of conversation at the Hackathon.
