[opensource-dev] Fw: Upcoming server side avatar baking

[Nicky Perian]

The  difference in the re-base method of 1.9+ vs 2.2 most likely due to not having merge changsets in play.
I think a rebase and not folding the changesets might be better. Then, if there are ui and pathfinding changesets not needed in v1 they could be stripped leaving only server bake changsets. Mixed purpose changesets would have to be edited for for server side code and committed.  This of course would not build but, that doesn't seem to be the purpose any way.
