[Bioc-devel] Help git package maintaining

[Turaga, Nitesh]

Hi Rafael, 

Please try the following 

	git checkout origin/RELEASE_3_10 

	git reset --hard a724b95802b94cb096b592d716ddaf2b263e71bd

This is the cleanest way to achieve what you need. 

Please also keep in mind to back up your entire folder in another directory should something go wrong.

Best,

Nitesh
