On the asf infra slack channel, I asked about protection for uima-uimaj branches, what was set, how to see, etc.
The answer was: >>>right now, nothing, which is actually an oversight on my part. i need to go >>>protect the master branch. >>>protect = refs/heads/trunk refs/heads/master refs/heads/rel/ refs/tags/rel/ >>>that is the default protection Protection appears to be a property of GitHub, not of "git" itself (the ProGit book has no hits for this kind of protection). I cannot find this syntax anywhere. Does anyone know what this refers to? Also, when branches are "protected" in github, you have to additionally specify the kinds of protection. Does anyone know what these are? I feel like I'm missing some significant documentation ... Cheers. -Marshall
