-In addition to the steps outlined by [GitTips](/gittips) we have put together a wrapper script around git-commit that can be used to commit to multiple branches. Simply save this script as git-commit somewhere on your PATH.
-
-You can use it like so:
-
-```sh
-$ git-commit -b some_branch -m "some commit message"
-```
-
-**git-commit**
