Hello,

As a integration test I would like to join several branches before merging them with my master.

All of them diverged from the master and make it's own way. It is a correct merging different branches with no direct-relationship (e.g. parent/child)??

Is there any good practise for rejoining branches??

Thanks in advance, Raul.

Is there a way to lock a branch in GIT

as seen on Stack Overflow - Search for 'Stack Overflow'
I have an idea of locking a repository from users pushing files into it by having a lock script in the GIT update hook since the push can only recognize the userid as arguments and not the branches. So i can lock the entire repo which is just locking a directory. Is there a way to lock a specific… >>> More
