I'm not suggesting hard and fast rules, or necessarily keeping track of branches, just a short email to -dev to make it more likely that work won't be wasted. > Since I'm the one who's created the last couple branches for ilo and I'm far > too lazy to post to -dev on the off chance I take 30 seconds to help someone > on IRC by creating a branch for them, I propose we just make the branch > commit at least somewhat meaningful and admit that the system is never going > to be perfect. In this case it wouldn't be you sending the email, but ilo, since the branches were created for his work/play. But yes, commit messages should be "at least somewhat meaningful" :) -- To post to this group, send email to [email protected] To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [email protected] For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/habari-dev
