Option to Cherry Pick the Hotfix Commits

Open simonweil opened this issue 10 years ago • 3 comments

This pull request contains the following:

  • A new option for git flow hotfix finish --cherrypick or git flow hotfix finish -c
  • Support for git config with gitflow.hotfix.finish.cherrypick
  • Detailed instructions when the cherry pick fails
  • Add color support (when supported by the system) for clarity of the output

Why? I do not want to back merge master or the hotfix branch to develop when I finish the hotfix for many reasons:

  • It makes the git log very hard to read and understand
  • Removing a feature after a backmerge from maser/hotfix branch is really hard
  • If we would like to remove a hotfix commit for some reason it is very difficult after a merge and easy after a cherry pick

Hope you like it.

@petervanderdoes Is only the removal of colors preventing this from being merged?

It's been a while but I believe it is.
