Question Is there a way in Git to have a 'description' for branches? While I try to use descriptive names, working for a while on a single branch sometimes dampens my memory of why I made some of the other topic branches. I try to use descriptive names for the branches, but I think a 'description' (short note about the purpose of the branch) would be nice. Answer Git 1.7.9 supports this.…

Question I have a dataframe df and I use several columns from it to groupby: df['col1','col2','col3','col4'].groupby(['col1','col2']).mean() In the above way, I almost get the table (dataframe) that I need. What is missing is an additional column that contains number of rows in each group. In other words, I have mean but I also would like to know how many were used to get these means. For example in the first group there are 8 values and in the second one 10 and so on.…

Question This question already has answers here: </div> Make the current Git branch a master branch (17 answers) Closed 3 years ago. I have two branches in my Git repository: master seotweaks (created originally from master) I created seotweaks with the intention of quickly merging it back into master. However, that was three months ago and the code in this branch is 13 versions ahead of master.

Question I have a Git repository that has several submodules in it. How do I list the names of all the submodules after git submodule init has been run? The git submodule foreach command could echo the names of the submodule, but that only works once they have been checked out which has not happened after the init step. There are more steps in the chain that need to happen before they can be checked out, and I don't want to have to hard-wire names of submodules into the script.…
