At Platform 11 I started a couple of detailed step-by-steps for new Git users
which I'll try publish tomorrow. One workflow was a straight svn like process
in master designed to be used for the first week or two of git use while they
learn the basic commands, after which the dev would move onto the feature
branch workflow. Besides the inconsistency that Torgey also found, the one
part of the command flow I'm wondering about is whether for the simple
workflow we tell them to push or merge their commits into master?
