Well this doesn't do a lot in the way of substantiating. I do want to be
illuminated. I want to get DVCS! And my understanding is that we need to
branch whenever we plan a new release, and cherry-pick bugfixes from the
mainline, and such. Or (when we have multiple contributors) use one
branch per feature. When I ask you, you neither confirm nor deny that,
but instead go for the vague "well you need to change your mindset". I
hope you see how this is less than useful.
I am not sure how to respond to this.
Pardon my accent in the suggestion that follows: "Indeed that wasn't one
of my best posts, but you know that happens to any and all of us. I now
understand the dynamics and needs of this projects a little better, and
I probably should one day contribute a exactly one line to it so I get a
better feel for the whole process. I agree that disciplined use of
branching for each release is a good start, as others pointed out."
