Subject: I've been pushing to one branch from both git-svn and git
Date: Tue, 4 May 2010 12:43:23 +0100	[thread overview]

Hi,

I have a git repository we'll call the git svn repo, in which I only
perform git svn fetch and git push bare.

bare is a bare git repository, which I push to from a local
repository.  The mistake I've been making is to push to the branch
'trunk' in bare, from my local repository.  The reason this is a
mistake is because git push bare from the git svn repo also pushes to
there.

Today I've been forced to learn of my mistake, as I cannot push from
the git svn repo without possibly losing commits.  It turns out (which
is probably obvious to you all) that I should have been pushing to,
say, bare's 'master' branch instead of its trunk one.

I don't intend to push back to svn from any of these repos, but I
would like to be able to continue pulling changes from svn at least
for the time being.  What should I do?

Thanks,
Ricky.
