Re: [Tsheetx-developers] New branch required for timezone experiments?

[Peter L. <pal...@gm...>]

Thanks guys. I didn;t think it would  be that easy, mainly I though I would
not have permission to create branches. It will also be easy to copy the
changes I;ve made locally into the new branch as Scott has suggested.
