Uh what?

Then git fetch git rebase origin dev/handle-grace and git push origin HEAD:staging Note that this will refuse to push in case staging is ahead of master. Usually you don't want to push in that situation anyhow since things will get really complicated in case the material in staging will _not_ test out fine and get pushed to master. So you just wait a few hours and then start over with "git fetch". -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
