Overview
Usually, when you register a Bazaar branch with Launchpad, you tell Launchpad which project the branch is associated with.
If you'd prefer to upload a branch to Launchpad without it showing up in any project's branch listings, you can use the +junk pseudo-project. This can be useful if your branch is:
- for a project not yet in Launchpad
- not ready to be publicly associated with a project.
+junk branches work in a similar way to normal branches: anyone can create their own branch and they show up in your own branch list.
However, there are some differences:
- you can't propose a +junk branch for merger
- they don't show up in any project's branch listing
- you don't earn karma from +junk branches.
If you want to collaborate on a +junk branch with someone else, you'll need to create a project.
Registering a +junk branch
Adding a +junk branch to Launchpad is similar to registering a branch associated with a project.
Visit your register a branch page and make sure you select the Hosted option, to host the branch on Launchpad.
At top of the page, you'll see that the automatically updating branch name looks something like:
~matthew.revell/+junk/mybranch
Next step
You can work with Bazaar branches in Launchpad even if they're hosted elsewhere by mirroring them.
