ps. for consistency across the project, Jon has sketched out a suggested git workflow, http://www.psychopy.org/developers/repository.html#share-your-improvement-with-others

In part, this adopts conventions worked out by other groups. the branch names and the first line of commit msgs show up all over the place. so having informative branch names is good (such as "feature-xyz"), which you then merge into your own master once its all ship-shape, and Jon ideally only pulls from your master. commit messages work better if the first line is a short tag summary, and the rest elaborates it.
