while I tend to agree that sending emails about commits to user branches is not a good idea, I also believe that you should (almost?) never rebase a public branch. Certainly not if you expect anyone else to fetch it or - god forbid - base some of their commits on it, as opposed to just reading it through the web interface. I'd suggest appending a date to the namer of the branch and thus always publish a new branch, making it clear that its history is different. Martin
