The buildfarm has had a mechanism for handling this for a little while now. See http://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/PostgreSQL_Buildfarm_Howto#Using_run_branches.pl That helps if you run all the branches anyway. But I think my request is still useful for other places. -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers

- Original Message - From: Peter Eisentraut pete...@gmx.net I have never actually used symbolic-ref, but after playing with it a little bit, it seems it should work fine for this purpose. Comments? +1 its should work fine, because any how we just going to add symbolic-ref which contain ref: refs/heads/master. Just want to ask, what exactly you want, is like this 1. you want to create symbolic -ref as _git symbolic-ref refs/heads/REL9_3_STABLE refs/heads/master_ 2. which will show in _git branch_ as REL9_3_STABLE - master * master 3.

[HACKERS] create a git symbolic-ref for REL9_3_STABLE
I suppose we'll be branching off 9.3 in a few weeks. That event always creates a service gap in the build farm and similar services, and a race in the NLS service to get everything adjusted to the new branch. It seems to me we could already now create a git symbolic-ref named REL9_3_STABLE that points to master, get all those services updated for the new name, and when the actual branching is supposed to happen, we just remove the symbolic-ref and make a real branch, and everything else should already be in place.
