I've also enjoyed a bit of success putting a website under git.  I started
working on AJAX-ing some of the code, but I needed to do maintainence on the
live site, so I've just simply done "git-checkout master" to work on that, and
"git-checkout ajax; git-pull . master" when I want to continue work on the
ajax upgrades.

However, before I bug-fix, I have to "snapshot" any working changes in the
ajax branch or I would lose them on "git-checkout master", which gives me
commits that look like "snapshot".  Am I doing that wrong?  Is there a better
way to do parallel development of a "live vs upgrade" branch, and make commits
only when I make progress?
