What about this adition to the Wiki? I could also simply add it to the KDE Git
wiki, of course.

== Using multiple branches ==
In Git it is very easy to have several branches. Usually, you keep one branch
per feature, so called “Topic Branches”.
Because git tracks merges, output from “git log master…$topic” gives all
you need to know about $topic. The command lists changes that are still
not merged to master on the $topic branch. If the list is empty, $topic is
already merged fully to master.
For more details refer to one of the linked tutorials.

Oh, I forgot to mention that the text is based upon a comment of Junio C
Hamano (Git maintainer) on the Git list. But I doubt that there is a
copyright issue for taking 4 lines of an email.

Sure. We use topic branches sometimes, so I expect it would be used.

The point is: I am not allowed to change the wiki as I am in the wrong user group. So somebody who is in the right group has to add it for me

I have been using topic branches a lot - they are amazing once you start
using them in Git. In SVN it would have been unthinkable and so they
made me nervous at first. It is a very natural way to work, like git
stash on steroids.
