Add alternative way to resolve merge conflicts #34

This is much nicer. We could just update the instructions to use these commands. Best to specify only one way, particularly if there's one that's objectively better.

saschastahl commented 8 years ago

You mean just remove the other bullet point?

gdujany commented 8 years ago

mmm, not sure it is objectively better in all cases. I would claim that the first option is better If I have to checkout packages from different projects, especially if I intend to run locally some tests to see if the rebase did not break anything.

alexpearce commented 8 years ago

OK, then we should expand on this. It's important to be clear; I do git pull loads in non-LHCb projects, so it would be great to provide instructions how this works for LHCb.

gdujany commented 8 years ago

well, for my understanding now there is not a simple git lb-pull or a git lb-fetch but hopefully they will be there in the future so I guess it is fine to keep the links to the twiki in a challenge section now and hopefully update the section with simpler commands soon

saschastahl commented 8 years ago

I think you have to repeat git lb-use to pull upstream changes.

apuignav commented 7 years ago

Hi guys, do we have an update on this? What should we do with this PR?

alexpearce commented 7 years ago

There's still no way to effectively rebase an lb-dev project, so I think this is still relevant.
