Robin:

Looks like you want your branching to be more like:

Main ------------------------------------------------------------------- | ^ ^ | once-only | | | | | V | | R1.0 ---------R1.1 dev happens here------------------------ | ^ | once-only | | | V | R1.0Stable -----------------------------------------

The way you are proposing will require you to at least establish a fake branching relationship between R1.1 and main in order to establish a base.

I planning on the following branching strategy where there is a main/head branch and 2 release branches. The R1.1 is a little unusual since it's created from the R1.0 branch but we'll be integrating it's changes back into the Main branch. (The reason for this is that R1.0 has been through extensive QA whereas Main has not.)

Main ------------------------------------------------------------------- | ^ ^ | once-only | | | | | V | | R1.0 --------------------- | | | | once-only | | | V | R1.1 -----------------------------------------

Can I just create 2 branch specs to represent this, i.e. R1.0->R1.1 and R1.1->Main? What problems will result?
