Dear all, it is a pity to see that since many weeks there has been no progress on merging any of Andreas' work. I think everyone involved is to be blamed to some extent. Andreas because the provided branches are not kept clean, Ivan probably for lack of time, and me for not paying more attention and helping this process along. The general life-cycle in any project, including osmo-pcu, should be as follows: * contributor starts on some improvements, creates private branch * master advances meanwhile * contributor rebases (not merges!) his changes on top of more recent master * contributor indicates that his branch is ready for merge * maintainer merges (some of?) the commits of the contributor branch * contributor re-bases remaining commits on new master * contributor requests merge of remaing patches ... If I open 'gitk' on any of the branches (master / jolly / jolly_dsp) I get grey hair (to say the least). One would normally expect: 1) 'jolly' to be based on some (maybe not current) master 2) 'jolly_dsp' to be based on 'jolly' Neither of the two is the case. I've tried to * rebase jolly on top of master as well as * rebase jolly_dsp on top of jolly and both are impossible due to the series of merges and the unclear ancestry / relationship of the branches. Or, just for fun, try 'git diff origin/jolly..origin/jolly_dsp. It shows you anything else but what one would expect Andreas: Please take some time to clean up the mess. Your 'jolly' branch should contain a series of clean per-feature commit's on top of current master, and 'jolly_dsp' should be a set of few patches on top of 'jolly'. This way there is always a clean queue of changesets that Ivan can merge (or cherry-pick). I can understand that if I was in Ivan's place, I would not really know where to even start merging some of those contributions. Thanks for everyone's attention. Please take some time to get this resolved. Let me know if you have some questions. There are plenty of people with lots of git experience around (Holger, Pablo, myself) who can help if something is unclear.
