[Bioc-devel] Using Git with Bioconductor SVN repositories

Dear all,

I'm struggling with using git and the Bioconductor SVN repo of my packages.

For example, I have a package in devel (bacon) and managed to push changes
to the svn/trunk of my package using the steps described at:

https://www.bioconductor.org/developers/how-to/git-mirrors/

following scenario 2, but after

git checkout master
git merge devel

the decorate output of git log is:

*   e8e3752 - (HEAD, master) Merge branch 'devel' (22 seconds ago)
<mvaniterson>
|\
| * fe340af - (git-svn-devel, devel) fix bug meta-analysis and add trimming
of test-statistics (in the future) <m.iterson>
* | 73921c7 - (origin/master, origin/HEAD) fix bug meta-analysis and add
trimming of test-statistics (15 minutes ago) <mvaniterson>
|/
* 693fdba - (bioc/master) add ggplot versions of hist and qq add topTable
function and updating vignette (2 weeks ago) <m.iterson>
* fc2436f - update markdown file (2 weeks ago) <m.iterson>
* 52a7818 - add ggplot versions of hist and qq add topTable function and
updating vignette (2 weeks ago) <m.iterson>
* 92ed414 - fix typo and add URL and BugReports to DESCR. (2 weeks ago)
<m.iterson>
* b45332b - Adding doppelgangR, EpiCluster, PCAN, bacon, SwathXtend (3
weeks ago) <mtmorgan at fhcrc.org>

whereas I expect every branch should be in sync.
The state of my fork is: 1 commit ahead, 1 commit behind
Bioconductor-mirror:master.  What should I do at this point?

If followed this scenario before and commit to git and push to GitHub as
normally but ended up in a state that I only could solve by removing my
fork from github and start all over again.

Cheers,
Maarten
