[Dune-devel] Private write access for Andreas

[Andreas Buhr]

Hi Markus,

I see your concerns. But I like the intended workflow very much.

There are no commit mails for private branches, see
http://users.dune-project.org/projects/main-wiki/wiki/Repository_layout#General-layout

You can easily ignore my private branches, just like if they were in a 
separate repository. ;-)

That's true, but since git branches are extremely lightweight, the 
burden should be very small.

Great :-)

Best Regards,
