Hi: I’ve proposed a change to the mariadb-server. I created a local git branch (“dbinstaller”) while working on it and then posted a patch to Trac for the maintainer to review.
I wanted to go forward and develop/test changes to my mythtv.28 port that depend on the mariadb-server changes. I created another local git branch from master (dvrinstall) for that work. It only just occurred to me that the mariadb-server changes don’t exist in my dvrinstall branch. (Duh.) How can I incorporate the mariadb-server changes with my mythtv.28 changes for testing yet, when it comes time to push, only push the mythtv.28 commit(s)? Please be really explicit—my git experience fits in a thimble with much room to spare! More generally, is there a preferred approach that one should follow in such cases in the future? Thanks, Craig (resending as first try appears to be lost in the ether.)
