Re: [hibernate-dev] Hibernate Core is now using Git

If you want to contribute a fix or new feature, either use the pure Git approach, or use the GitHub fork capability (see http://help.github.com/forking/ and http://help.github.com/pull-requests/ ) The benefit of the GitHub approach is that we can comment on the pull request and code though I am far from an expert so far and their flow could easily be improved (slightly confusing). #for people with read/write access git clone git@github.com:hibernate/hibernate-core.git

o prefer rebase over merge Rebase put changes from the branch you forked below the new commits you have done and thus keep the history linear. got checkout HHH-XXX git rebase master DO NOT rebase a branch that you have shared publicly (unless you know people won't use it or you wish them harm).
