We do. http://locke.catalyst.net.nz/gitweb?p=moodle.git;a=heads shows a lot of heads that share 99% of the code. The repo is ~90MB -- and we check each head out with cogito, develop and push. It is a shared team repo, using git+ssh and sticky gid and umask 002. Works pretty well I have to add. The only odd thing is that the fastest way to actually start working on a new branch is to ssh on to the server and cp moodle.git/refs/heads/{foo,bar} and then cg-clone that bar branch away. Perhaps I should code up an 'cg-branch-add --in-server' patch. regards, martin - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/ | ||||||||||||
