When I went to
test this, I realized that git won't allow you to have both "f14" and
"f14/topic" as branches, because of the way the git metadata works on
Does there need to be some sort of check for / in maintainer created
branch names to prevent problems?
My hope is that the impact would be minimal. Git allows branch
renames,
and can successfully rename "f14/master" to "f14". All the history
is
renamed. We should be able to do this without an outage of the git server.
Is this going to break things for people that having set up origin tracking
for multiple releases in the same repo?
