Re: Standardizing the layout of git packaging repositories

[Manoj Srivastava <srivasta@golden-gryphon.com>]

hi,


  rebasing is not an option for any branch that is published, and is very ride to your downstream developers.  if git-dpm requires that model of software development, one would have to consider it unsuitable for non trivial package development. I certainly hope that is not the case.

Hi,

Brian May:
 I don't think you should use normally be feature branches with git-dpm.
 Rather you edit the commit directly (whether by rebase or --amend).
 
If Upstream uses git and wants you to send a pull request when you add a
feature (or fix a bug), then using a feature branch is what you do – so our
git-aware packaging tools should work well with them.
