Hi.

There are a number of us working on a project. We each have a HEAD, and work on branches, using git-checkout -b MyPatch. When we have finished working on the branch, we move back to the HEAD, with git-checkout master, do a git-pull and then git-cherry-pick sha1.....

I have two questions. 
1) Is this the normal way to work with git.
2) Also, we sometimes get a log of 
Merge branch 'master' of git://sgit/MyProject which has no commits. Why
does this happen?
Thanks,
Peter
