"You will need to merge master back into your cleanup branch periodically, but that is usually easier than it would be to recall all of the context relating to the original change."
Won't there be merge conflicts when you do this the first time as the clean feature branch code be different from the flag based feature on the master? Of course, all the subsequent merges should be conflict-free.
- pkaeding 10y agoThere shouldn't necessarily be any merge conflicts if you branch the cleanup branch off of your feature branch. So, it might look like this: -master---------------*--------------------*-- \-feature-branch---/ / \-cleanup-branch-----/
- cosmolev 10y agoBut why only the first time? This code is always different.
