branch

: A T / \ i B C m : : e D E \ / | F V : git merge-base B E allows to find where a the common ancestor A of the two commits. Is there a way to find the commit F where the two branches are merged again? Oops. Didn't read that carefully enough. The only information in a commit is the id of its parent (or parents). You cannot get to a child from a parent commit (this is the directed part of the repository being a DAG). Looking at this more - it looks like the --ancestry-path option for git log can do this. For instance given: * 85d26ab When compiling vim, also compile & install gvim * 3146e5d

I like creating named branches in Mercurial to deal with features that might take a while to code, so when I push I do a hg push -r default to ensure I'm only pushing changes to the default branch. However, it is a pain to have to remember -r default every time I do do a push or outgoing command. So I tried fix this by adding this config to my ~/.hgrc: [defaults] push = push -r default outgoing = outgoing -r default The problem is, those config lines are not really defaults, they are aliases. They work as intended until I try to do a hg push -r <some revision> . And the "default" I've setup

git 创建分支 并 提交到远程分支 g it branch 0.可以通过git branch -r 命令查看远端库的分支情况 1,从已有的分支创建新的分支(如从master分支),创建一个dev分支 git checkout -b dev 2,创建完可以查看一下,分支已经切换到dev git branch * dev master 3.建立本地到上游（远端）仓的链接 --这样代码才能提交上去 git branch --set-upstream-to=origin/dev 取消对master的跟踪 git branch --unset-upstream master git 创建分支提交远程分支 - oppotvr https://my.oschina.net/u/219482/blog/285584 以下两个应该是同一个意思，=upstream : 上游码流的意思 git branch --set-upstream-to=master git branch --set-upstream-to=original/master git help branch git branch [--set-upstream | --track | --no-track] [-l] [-f] [] git branch (--set-upstream-to= | -u ) [] git

I have two branches A and B in a project that I am working on. B differs from A by a single commit, which is a section of the code completely independent from what I'm working on for the next while (aka, I will have many commits I want to push to both branch A and B). Is there any way in git that I can commit to both branch A and branch B at the same time, without having to commit it to one branch, checkout the other, and try to cherry pick out the commit(s). You could: make all your commits on A rebase B on top of A (if you haven't pushed B already, that is) That way, B will include all

I need to create a branch at a specific Changeset in TFS. Is this doable? For example, I have changeset 1528 that was the last check in on my project. But I want to branch from changeset 1487. Can this be done? If so, how? Note: I am using TFS 2008 Yes. When a branch is created you can choose the historical point in time when it takes effect (date, changeset, etc). See Visual Studio TFS Branching and Merging Guide for some great information on recommended branching practices. Or How to: Branch Files and Folders (MSDN) for more explicit instructions on getting this dialog up to create a branch.

I am trying to create a new branch using the API, and have used both PendBranch() and CreateBranch() . The problem with CreateBranch() is it commits immediately and I want to be able to add comments as the branch is checked in. So, I what I did is shown below. Basically I get all the information like server item and local item to be mapped as well as source and target of the branch from my windows application. Somehow, when I see Source Control Explorer it still says "Not mapped" even though I have given a : workspace.Get() after creating the workspace and workspace.Map(serverItem,localItem)

I am using Git for a while but i still have trouble understanding some features despite hours spent on blogs and tutorials... :) I am working on a project with other people for which my boss created a repo on bitBucket. I cloned it locally, and already did some commits to the master branch, and pulled some changes by others. I now want to do modifications on the long term. I will have to push some of them to the master branch, and keep other ones just for myself. I think that i could fork the master branch to have my own version(?). I am a bit confused about what procedure i should follow.
