Just push your changes.
I think we need a good understanding before we go to the gitflow approach. Naming conventions and other stuff. As gitflow introduces some sort of release management I feel it is important to release early and soon to get the change spread to other users/systems. After all we are still basically 3.
As the master already contains lots of changes master = development. As you changes are "good enough for testing/sharing" they should be in development.
I just wish we already had a hotfix for the where sh and multi private libraries issues.

If we all agree I'll start using git flow immediately and create a feature for *serial-monitor*.
I already have the library manager into my master: if you wish I can export my commits to patch files and restart my fork clean....

Just let me know: I'm eager to submit my changes into the nightly :-)

                    Jantje has been working on the bigChange branche
                    for quite some time whilst hot fixes where pushed
                    to master. Maybe you are not aware of this but a
                    lot of people have been discovering this
                    workflow. This has resulted in a bunch of git
                    commands that are now known as *Git Flow*.

                    Git Flow has support in Eclipse. It works like this:

                    There are two main branches, *master* and
                    *develop*. The develop branch has the exact same
                    purpose as Jan's bigChange branch. It enables you
                    to make big changes without loosing track of what
                    the people are using. It is used to work towards
                    a new release. /Nightly/ should be build from
                    *develop* and /release/ should be build from
                    *master.*


                    *Is this all?*
                    Yes and no. Yes, in that this is the essence of
                    Git Flow. No because why would you want to make
                    it simple.. Before I tell you about the other
                    nice features. I have to explain one term that
                    Git Flow uses: *Feature*. A features is basically
                    a new fix, an added function, etc..

                    The other principles Git Flow has are:

                    * All changes are done in *Feature Branches*
                    which are typically named after the issue number
                    (e.g. 321, 332, etc..)
                    * When a feature is done, it is merged back into
                    the develop branch (and a new nightly is build).
                    * All changes to master are done in *Hot Fix*
                    branches,
                    * When a hot fix is done, it is merged back into
                    master (and a new release is build)

                    /I propose to move over to the/*Git Flow
                    principle */after April 1./*
                    *

                    I am more than happy to give a lesson about git
                    and git flow. Life is so much more beautiful when
                    you get git than if you "just use it" without
                    fully understanding it.

                    Cheers,
