This looks like it would be a nightmare for working with other developers.
Other developer: "I did 'git sprout foo' and made my changes then 'git publish foo'. But now I'm not sure why the foo branch isn't on the public repo."
Me: "????"

- alinajaf 15y agoWhile I'm perfectly happy with the stock git porcelein commands (and generally don't like any attempts at simplifying them, including gui tools) other developers having a different workflow isn't the reason. I think having shortcuts and wrappers like the above is fine if you have a good understanding of the underlying data structure you're manipulating. You're only going to run into problems if you treat these commands as magic and just hope they work.
