1. Update my local "base" branch (now wix39 or master, depending on the bug/feature I'm investigating) from the latest sources. 2. Branch that "base" branch to the "issue" branch (in my case, I name my branches as <issue-type><issue-number>) 3. Work my issue (design, code, test, iterate). Some issues take some time, so I go back to 1 and repeat with other new branches for other issues I'm simultaneously working, unless the resolution for one issue depends on another. 4. Update my "base" branch again. Merge changes in "base" into "issue", rebuild, retest, push "issue" to fork and request pull.
By 'merge', do you mean you rebase your changes? I've not used Git much so I don't know if this is overly complex, but the workflow I normally use (not for WiX) is:
Make sure I have the latest code: > git fetch upstream > git merge upstream/master Create and checkout my issue branch, tracking the local master: > git checkout -b issue_branch master change files commit them > git commit -u Get the latest changes: > git checkout master > git fetch upstream > git merge upstream/master Rebase onto those changes: > git checkout issue_branch > git rebase master Push changes upstream then delete the branch: > git push upstream issue_branch:master > git checkout master > git branch -D issue_branchI've started using SourceTree for cherry-picking (equivalent to transplanting in Hg) changes, and will probably try and use it more in future for routine stuff.
