we could do that, though the merge base changes to the last commit that was merged in that way. The old merge base is still valid but much older. I applied this method to some of my bugfixes so the current merge base of master and 1.9 is a commit from yesterday not anymore the diverging point of master and 1.9. But I don't know if the newer merge base makes any difference to git. _______________________________________________ NumPy-Discussion mailing list NumPy-Discussion@scipy.org http://mail.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
