Moving a ticket from patches to git

Moving a patch from the combinat queue to git

All patches in the queue will soon be merged from the sage-combinat queue to git branches on trac. Authors who want to do this themselves are encouraged to do so. The script will by default put the branches to public/combinat/branchname and might loose author information if the patch does not have the appropriate meta information.

Here is a sample workflow on how to transform your patch to git:

First make sure that your patch has the correct meta data by exporting it.
Make a new branch on your local machine:

$ git checkout -b combinat/kschur master
$ git branch
* combinat/kschur
  master
  ticket/15300

Next import the patch from the queue

$ sage --dev import-patch --local-file /Applications/sage-5.13.beta2/devel/sage-combinat/.hg/patches/kschur-as.patch

Now we create a branch on trac

$ git push --set-upstream origin combinat/kschur:u/aschilling/combinat/kschur

 * [new branch]      combinat/kschur -> u/aschilling/combinat/kschur
Branch combinat/kschur set up to track remote branch u/aschilling/combinat/kschur from origin.

Mark the patch in the sage-combinat series file as moved to git by changing

kschur-as.patch
