Yes, I'd seen that on a google search, and it made my head hurt :-) (My fault, not theirs...!)

I was latching onto the last line of that email: "Maybe in your case this could be even simpler but this should be the general process".

My situation _should_ be the simplest. Every topgit branch starts off from master, and they're all notionally independent of each other. As long as they're here, they're "cooking", all together, in a branch called t/all.

When one branch is deemed to be cooked, a "tg export" takes that code to master, and I intend to delete t/all and create it afresh with the rest of the dependencies (the old set minus the one that finished cooking).

I was hoping to hear if anyone sees any red flags in that strategy.

Thanks again,
