From: Jon Seymour Date: Mon, 07 May 2012 13:48:47 GMT Subject: [PATCH] git-svn: clarify documentation of dcommit sub-command Message-ID: <1336398527-4363-1-git-send-email-jon.seymour@gmail.com> Clarify that the optional "revision or branch" argument on dcommit sub-command refers to a git branch not an SVN branch. If the user's intent is to commit the current series of commits onto a specific SVN branch rather than the trunk, the existing wording might lead them to believe that the optional argument may be a means to achieve this. The rewording clarifies that the optional argument actually refers to the source git branch, not the target svn branch.

This is advantageous over 'set-tree' (below) because it produces cleaner, more linear history. -- 1.7.9.264.g3fbfe6
