Cheers! Thanks for merging! On a side note, the fixes for being git-describe friendly do slightly modify the branching work-flow and I have not yet had a deeper look at it - so you might need to update your branching pictures as well. Maybe I can have a look at it as well, but don't count on it - I am also buried in work. :) |

Thanks for the side-note, this is planned during the whole "rework" of the cheatsheet, I also plan to extend it with new feature and possibly a few project workflow examples.. But regarding work - I think most of us are in the same boat in that regard ;) |

The initial toolset of git-flow at https://github.com/nvie/gitflow is not developed any further (i.e. dead). The last commit is 4 years old.
There are several big issues with the old git-flow tool, the most daunting (i.e.
git describedoes not work):git describeon develop branch doesn't work nvie/gitflow#126The old git-flow does also not support git-flow-specific hooks:
The git-flow AVH Edition from https://github.com/petervanderdoes/gitflow-avh seems to be the commonly agreed on successor to git-flow and is a fork of the original git-flow that addresses these problems. It is backward-compatible with the original git-flow and addresses the above problems.
Therefore I changed the installation instructions and changed them to install git-flow-avh. I have used the instructions from: https://github.com/petervanderdoes/gitflow-avh/wiki/Installation for the individual platforms. However as I am on OS X, I have only tested OS X (ports + brew). The instructions for Linux mention, that on a current Ubuntu
apt-get install git-flowwill install the AVH edition of git-flow anyway. That's why I did not change the Linux installation instructions.Your cheat-sheet is nice and we use it at work for new developers and maybe you consider making the switch to git-flow-avh as well.
