[Bioc-devel] Help using Git with Bioconductor SVN repositories
Then I tried forking the repo available from bioconductor-mirror (https://github.com/Bioconductor-mirror/GenomicTuples). This resulted in an error due to a non-existent devel branch.
Yep, same here. I disabilited the git-svn bridge forked the Bioconductor-mirror/REPO and cloned it, used update_remotes.sh but no devel branch there: data at decoder:~/Dropbox/work/RNAseq/ERI/roar/roar_svn$ git branch -a * master remotes/origin/HEAD -> origin/master remotes/origin/master remotes/origin/release-3.0 remotes/origin/release-3.1 I was thinking that I will be using master as devel while reading the docs then I stumbled across devel and stopped there. I've seen people talking about cherry pick to keep their previous git history but it's not really clear to me how this should work...I was willing to use git-diff to get back my previous work. If that sounds a good approach then another question: can I use the forked repo adding branches to develop new feature in a separate branch and then merge/rebase/whatever them in master (or devel?) when they are ready to go in the devel version of my package? Thank you very much, E.
