looking at http://git.lyx.org/?p=developers/tommaso/lyx.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/features/chat it seems to me that 1) master on the development/tommaso repo is NOT advancing 2) patches from lyx trunk (origin/master) are inter-spacing with commits for the feature branch regarding 1), I tried to configure a local branch "tommaso/master" with [branch "tommaso/master"] remote = tommaso merge = refs/heads/features/chat but it doesn't work, or at least when I try to checkout this branch I get the You are in 'detached HEAD' state. You can look around, make experimental changes and commit them, and you can discard any commits you make in this state without impacting any branches by performing another checkout. which sounds to me as wrong. AFAICU, ideally we should keep: a) tommaso/master "copying" (replicating) origin/master b) tommaso/features/chat adding only patches on top of tommaso/master, which is identical to origin/master thanks to a) Again, magic hints/spells to cast :D ?
