I'm not 100% sure what you guys mean by "post-merge pre-3.0" But in general tagging is very useful to mark a hash, and to go back and find it with a useful name.
Since you merged master2 into master, all history lives in master now. if you want to create a branch in the future you can always create a branch using the tag, so master2 branch can always be re-created if deleted. So you can tag master2 at the hash point 11dd24e | | * 11dd24e (origin/master2) removed ripple documentation for now. https://www.evernote.com/shard/s34/sh/f75ae07c-24df-44a0-bb1e-71b6ebebc14f/2699c036c09176f33b0229ecc7e52e19 --Carlos On Tue, Jul 9, 2013 at 3:49 PM, Andrew Grieve <agri...@chromium.org> wrote: > Yep, great idea (tagging vs branch) > > I think post-merge pre-3.0 history will exist only on master branch > regardless of tag vs branch. confirm? > > I've removed bb10RemovePrompt, future, future-bb10. > > > > On Tue, Jul 9, 2013 at 3:30 PM, Benn Mapes <benn.ma...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > I like Carlos' idea of tagging master2 and deleting it. > > > > This cleans up the branches so no-one will mistakenly commit to it, but > > also preserves the history and we can add a message to the tag explaining > > what it was used for and why it was deleted. > > > > > > On Tue, Jul 9, 2013 at 10:48 AM, Filip Maj <f...@adobe.com> wrote: > > > > > Agree with Andrew, rename the branch to pre-3.0-history > > > > > > On 7/9/13 10:45 AM, "Carlos Santana" <csantan...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > > > > >I propose to kill master 2 branch, and instead use a tag > > "pre-3.0-history" > > > > > > > > > > > >On Tue, Jul 9, 2013 at 1:22 PM, Andrew Grieve <agri...@chromium.org> > > > >wrote: > > > > > > > >> Good idea.
