Does it make sense to think about this branch as an flow of commits? Or is it just a starting point for a line of development? If I make a branch, check it out, commit changes to it, and then clobber the working directory, can I later resume that branch of development without creating a new branch? Do I need to set a tag to mark the last commit on that branch? - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
