The branches I need to merge are called test and test-passed. Merging will always be fast-forward, from test to test-passed as commits to test-passed are only done automatically from test. This is currently working, just wondering if the approach is correct. The script is executed by Hudson, once all testing is complete.

One specific question I have, is if I need to create local branches as well (-b) or is that not required?
