gitflow:hotfix-finish does not always merge to develop

Open ptaylor opened this issue 5 years ago • 2 comments

A hotfix-finish will skip merging to develop if a release branch exists. I had a case where a release-finish failed during the merge to develop which left the release branch around. This means that the hotfix changes could be missed. Would you consider always merging to develop and the release branch (expect when skipMergeDevBranch is true) or adding an alwaysMergeDevBranch option?

we also have a use-case when we would like to keep release branch around and still merge hotfix branches to develop. when can we expect a fix for it?

We also have need of being able to always merge a hotfix back into develop.
