If you'll push this as some commits, it will not have much time (it will not be a showstopper for other taska) and this will not break anything else - you may commit it to master branch. In other case (if these changes will require a lot of time to finish modifications) - it's preferrable to start new branch (local - if there is no troubles, or remote into repo - if you expect collaborate work on these changes). > > If preferred I can build a new git branch, but I'm afraid we'll get lost > in various git branches. > (I have to confess, I'm still not used to work with a lot of branches > simultaneously) > > kp > You may start local branch, that will live only on your PC. If task becomes too complex/will require attention of other members - you can push local branch to remote branch.
