The way git does version control is different to CVS and svn and requires some 
adjustment, which is why the GitWine pages on the Wiki are there - ant they 
cover the operations that are probably 95% or more of the time spent using 
git. If there's something you need to do that isn't covered there, I'm pretty 
sure Mike is still on #winehackers during work hours Korean time and can 
answer questions on the "git rebase" way of doing things (and likely a lot of 
other people on that channel these days), and if you have problems with the 
branch approach  you can always email me directly. Provided you are asking 
something not already answered in the Wiki you'll normally get a response and 
the Wiki will be adjusted accordingly.
