hi everyone I have found a solution which may not be the best so I’m asking it here to see if I get a different solution from the wizards group. :)
I have a number of repos that were converted from svn to git. After the conversion the branches that contained each release were named something like “branches/version_<version-number>”. We want to modify the repo so the branches are named something like “release/<version-number>”. I currently do a command sequence like this: git checkout <existing-branch> git branch -m <existing-branch> <new-branch> git push origin :<old-branch> git push origin <new-branch> Then I do a: git checkout master git branch -D <new-branch> to cleanup my local area. Note: These branches are only kept for historical purposes and not modified except occasionally the latest release may have an update so fix a bug. Finally, as we move forward, what is the accepted best practice for doing a release? Thanks in advance for your collective wisdom. Best, J.
