Rebase should do it. git rebase -p –onto master testing~10 testing This will copy the last ten commits on testing to master and make that the new testing (the old testing will be an orphan). Then you can merge master to testing as a fast-forward. git checkout master git merge testing
I would use Subversion (in fact I use it) [update: Jul 2014 — I use Git — see end of the answer]. SVN is: free, good enough (see disadvantages below), simple, works fine on Windows (and Linux too), a lot of people use it so it’s easy to get help, can integrate with most of …
Use grep or git grep in your local clone. The GitHub search has a lot of limitations. I think the worst of these is that it only shows the first two matches from any file, so I just avoid it whenever possible.
Move and Rename are aliases. There is absolutely no difference, in any version of TFS, from the command line or the UI. Both of them preserve history. At least in 2005/2008, you keep the same physical item in the VersionedItem table no matter how often or how drastically the name and/or parent path changes. There …
And yet, branching should work, and will allow you to maintain two separate versions. If you have a bug which applies to the premium version, fix it on master, and merge it on premium branch.

Previously there was a .suo file which held this data.The change came from a UserVoice suggestion. Additionally, there’s a very useful GitHub repo that has common .gitignore files for various …
It is possible but not necessarily simple: the problem you are trying to solve is dangerously close to setting up a distributed development environment which is not exactly what SVN is designed for. The SVN-mirror way You can use svn mirror as explained in the SVN book documentation to create a read-only mirror of your …
to output to a file: git log > filename.log To specify a format, like you want everything on one line git log –pretty=oneline >filename.log or you want it a format to be emailed via a program like sendmail git log –pretty=email |email-sending-script.sh to generate JSON, YAML or XML it looks like you need to do …
It has been a year now since this post was raised, but considering future readers and the fact things have changed a bit I think it’s worth refreshing.
