Hi Sebastian,

In order to apply a single commit on the master branch, you simply cherry-pick 
it locally (in Eclipse: switch to master, right-click on the commit in the 
release branch, choose "cherry-pick"). Then you simply push this "new" commit 
to Gerrit.

When we merge back the release branch into the master branch at the end of the 
week, this commit will be already part of the master, and Git will maybe 
recognize this, but probably it will not because the ID is a different one. 
Then the merging process will require more manual work, but I think even that 
would be feasible. If we want a clearer history, some rebasing will be required 
[1], but in general that's not a good idea on "public" branches.

Franz

Subject: [Dpp-devel] Submit patch to master and release branch

Dear developers,

please look at http://saros-build.imp.fu-berlin.de/gerrit/#/c/224/. This fixes 
some failing STF tests which were introduced by 
http://saros-build.imp.fu-berlin.de/gerrit/#/c/187/.

I already submitted this patch to the release branch after it was successfully 
reviewed. Is it possible to merge this patch into the master branch right now? 
Because the STF tests will continue failing on the master branch. What would be 
the best way to accomplish this?

Best regards,
Sebastian
