I was on the master branch and when ready I did "git push" and it unexpectedly told me the following:

5bf257b..5314d04 DOGTAG_9_BRANCH -> DOGTAG_9_BRANCH
I did happen to have worked on DOGTAG_9_BRANCH as well but I did not expect it to be pushed as I was on the master at the time, although I was getting it ready as well. I just did not expect it to be pushed.
So does git push push everything even though you are not on that branch at the moment?
Now I see something called Merge branch 'DOGTAG_9_BRANCH' of ssh://git.fedorahoste.. being pushed onto DOGTAG_9_BRANCH. Is it supposed to be?
I find it essential to control exactly which branch I push from and to. So what you want to do is
git push <remote> <localbranch>:<remotebranch>
Git push with no arguments...I have nevere done that so I can't say, but I suspect it pushes for each of you local tracking branches, so it depends on how you made the branch in the first place.
Yes, rebasing is preferred.
What you want to do on DOGTAG_9_BRANCH is create a revert commit, that undoes the last commit, and then push that to the
DOGTAG_9_BRANCH.
There is some discussion about merges versus rebases, but I think the teams (IPA, DS and now CS) all want to go with the rebase approach. So before you push changes to DOGTAG_9_BRANCH you should do
I don't think that this is correct. There is functionality and critical bug fixing going on in the Dogtag 9 branch that we definitely want to get into master. It needs to get there somehow. Of course there may be work that is not needed on master due to refactoring, but that needs to be determined on a patch-by-patch basis.
git checkout DOGTAG_9_BRANCH
git fetch
git rebase DOGTAG_9_BRANCH
I like doing it as specific steps as I understand what each step is doing.
checkout makes sure I am in the right local branch.
git fetch pulls the changes down from the central repo to my local repo but makes *NO* changes to my local branch
git rebase only makes the changes, and will warn if there are any errors. ONce that is done, you will be able to push using
push origin DOGTAG_9_BRANCH:DOGTAG_9_BRANCH
You probably shouldn't be pushing to master, unless you are working with Ade and Endi on some issue.
thanks,
Christina
