I have to admit that I am confused. There have been lots of discussions and
proposals, but to me it is neither clear whether a long term workflow has
been agreed on, nor how the current workflow is supposed to look like. For
example, what am I supposed to do if I want to fix the latest file format
update with the attached change (created with git diff without any branch or
commit yet)? I guess it would look like
git checkout -b fixfileformat
git commit
git checkout master
git merge fixfileformat
git commit
git branch -d fixfileformat
IMO it is absolutely necessary to write down at least the current rules
somewhere (with examples if possible), so that casual contributors do not
need to dig through the list archive and apply some guess work to the
results found.
There's a growing body of such info at:
