Won't this also export child (or maybe parent) branches that weren't mentioned? For example: $ git branch one $ echo foo > content $ git commit -m two $ git fast-export one $ git fast-export two I suspect that one of those will export both one and two. If not, this seems like a great solution to the fast-export problem. -- Cheers, Sverre Rabbelier -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
