Hi All,
First I am not an expert in git or gitolite and second I have looked through
this google group for an answer to my question - if it is here I missed it.
My team has complete privileged access to the host with gitolite. We can
edit any file. I simply want to change the default branch for one existing
repository. (The Team would then re-check out that repo with the goal that
our local copies would then be based on the new non-master branch..)
My understanding is that this is set in the HEAD file for that repo. If I manually
edit that HEAD file to point to the desired non-master branch will this correctly
set what I'm looking to change? If not, as we can execute anything as root, or
any user, what would then be the correct command to make this change? We
do not have symbolic ref enabled. Is that necessary?
Many thanks,
Ray
