If I hit it again, I will. I think there are three cases, at least: - I have an active proposal and I want to resubmit it - ditto but I want to edit the message or comment - this branch has an inactive proposal and I want to make a new one. > The behaviour you describe is a bug, but there are many others like it. > Launchpad assumes feature branches all over the place in its design > (e.g. linking bugs to branches), and behaves badly when branches are reused. > > I used to re-use branches, (remember bzr.ab?) but with Launchpad, you're > just fighting against the design when you do that.

My case is actually a bit different which is that I do have stubby feature branches, I just reuse their names. ie I pull from trunk into doc, then I do a doc fix. -- Martin _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
