[epsilon-dev] Full access to Git/Gerrit branches

["arcanefoam@xxxxxxxxx" <arcanefoam@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

Some of you might have noticed that you can no longer delete branches on the Epsilon git repository.

I have opened a but to enable this feature: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=539721

To keep things organised, users will only have full control to branches under their user name, e.g.

refs/heads/${username}/myFeature

refs/heads/${username}/myAwesomeFix

Please use this structure to create new "work in progress branches" from now on. Avoid creating branches in the root as we can not have full access to the root and hence will need to open bug reports to have them removed.

Once we get a reply on the bug report I will circulate another email asking for information on existing branches as I think a prune is overdue.

Cheers,
