Re: [Wget-dev] wget2 | Question : How to build the manual of wget2 ? (#429)

@sebman What @darnir said. Of course could you unprotect the master branch in 
the Gitlab settings, but you shouldn't do that without a *good* reason (this 
here isn't a good reason). The protection of the master branch keeps you from 
shooting yourself in the foot ;-)

To fix this:
- close your MR (!422)
- create a new branch `git checkout -b tmp-split-docs` (in that moment it's 
just a copy of your local master branch)
- push it with `git push`
- create a new MR

After that, to 'repair' your local master branch:
- `git checkout master`
- `git reset --hard HEAD~3` (Drop the last 3 commits from master)
- `git pull` (Sync with your Gitlab master)

Sorry that all this must look very complicated for you. I guess almost 
everybody has a hard time with git when starting to use it. Once you understand 
what commits and branches are (given that you start working regularly with 
git), the above commands seem 'naturally' and 'intuitive'. Those command 
sequences often occur in my daily work.
