Hello,
we are running Mediawiki with some small modifications (e.g. the Vector.php skin).
My plan was to checkout a specific branch (e.g. 1.21.1).
Then I committed some local modifications to the code. The local repo is now ahead of e.g.
1 commit of origin.
Minor version upgrades (1.21.2) can be merged without any trouble.
My question is now, how an major upgrade (1.21 to 1.22) preserving my local commits can be
accomplished using GIT.
The only way I found so far was using cherry-pick to transfer the local commits to the new
branch.
Any ideas?
The MW guide recommends to make a fresh clone and copy the config file, images...
