Subject: howto handle name clashes
Date: Fri, 23 Mar 2012 14:06:01 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4F6C7539.3080607@tu-clausthal.de> (raw)
Hi,
how to handle name clashes for branches and tags? Is there anything I
can add to the refspec to make the name unique?
E.g.
- for merging "git merge --no-ff refs/branches/test" works, but
generates a not so nice default merge message. ("merged commit
refs/branches/test" instead of "merged branch test")
- how to drop a remote tag/branch ("git push origin :test" does not work)
