git repo: more updates before each final tag ?

git repo: more updates before each final tag ?

[Simon Paillard]

Hi Michael,

Would it be possible for you to push commits gradually, i.e. not to soon before
the final release / tag, but soon after your local commit ?

It would allow us:
* to spot any typos or groff issues, that are far easier to fix upstream
  than patch in the manpages package or in translations (like we do in
  perkamon-fr).
* to have more time to prepare translations, in order to reach timely
  synchronized releases between the english and the translated (here french)
  version.

Thanks a lot :)

Yep, sorry -- it's been a while since the last push (but it will still be
a while before a release). I've now done a push a couple of days back.

No problem. Bug me any time when you see I'm slow to do a push.

Cheers,
