Probably not, but within the process I was working I did not want to merge the branch with the recreated history for that path into the existing codebase (I don't like duplicate histories) so I used rebasing to move the new commits over, instead, and therefore did not need a join command. Feel free to add a join command, if you want one. >> The code is hosted on GitHub: >> >> >> We have announced the release as part of another announcement of >> released >> code at the Opera Security Group home page: >> >> -- Sincerely, Yngve N.
