- Thanks for the response! Before I go ahead and implement it this way, I just want to run the actual issue by you to see if you have any ideas. The specific problem is with release branches containing changes not being brought back into our development branch. The initial thought was that we could create a hook that would trigger when creating a branch whose name is similar to another remote branch. This way, we just need to require that release branches use the same naming style, and then the dev will be forced to delete the branch, prompting him to merge in any changes.mgoldman– mgoldman2014-11-11 22:31:58 +00:00Commented Nov 11, 2014 at 22:31
- Another thought was to have a perpetual release branch. The downside being that our release branch could contain code not present in our dev branch. Thoughts?mgoldman– mgoldman2014-11-11 22:36:37 +00:00Commented Nov 11, 2014 at 22:36

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. python-3.x), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
