It would be nice to create a branch for each issue (or each attached to an issue?)
Change "branch" to "temporal clone".
I support this, but implementation would be non trivial.
I have missed forever about being able to check a fix before "officially" committing it. Your request would provide it.
The problem is how to cope with security issues (a patch could execute arbitrary code in the buildbots) and how to change the buildbot reporting tools to NOT mix the results from different changeset.
Currently when I try to identify the changeset that introduces a bug, and I do a bisection search, "everybody" can see that "experiment" in the public buildbots. That is not very sensible. For instance, you can see "red" buildbots, when those failing builds are not for HEAD and so, not relevant to anybody else. I can sympathize with each core developer just committing a patch and getting a rush because she sees red buildbots... not related to the patch. More, she has to wait until I finish before she can see results relevant to her.
Rebasing is good before committing to the "real" repository, but anybody with a checkout clone will suffer. I guess the clone should be automatically destroyed as soon as the clone is merged back to the real repository.
