Is there a way to keep two branches on my filesystem at once? Err, this
is probably a bad way of phrasing the question, so I'll just describe
the problem:
Most of the time I track master. I have the documentation built, so
whenever I make a change it only takes a few minutes to compile the
changed the files.
Occasionally I want to make a one-line change to web/master. If I just
do "git checkout web/master", then I get a weird mixture of master and
web/master (because git doesn't remove my Documentation/ because I have
compiled files in there). I can avoid this weird mixture by deleting
all the files before checking out the new branch, but then when I go
back to master, it takes me an hour to compile all the docs. As a
result, I tend to wait for a week or two before making changes to
web/master.
Can I have a pair of directories like
lily-main/master
lily-main/web
which track different branches of git? (ie without downloading all
changes twice)
Cheers,
- Graham
