I will be moving to git for my version control soon. My continuous build system is Hudson and I use maven to build my artifacts. Anyone have a best practice for setting up git to work best with these other tools. recommendations on how packages and plugins should be managed in git to most easily pull down into Hudson would also be ap...
If there is anyone that can help me understand why this git repo isn't cloning that would be amazing. I runt the same command from the terminal it works. I hoping to find out where I can put the password so the server can authenticate the connection. Please and thank you. ERROR: Error cloning remote repo 'origin' : Could not clone ...
Are these the same thing? If so, why are there so many terms?! Also, I know there is this thing called git stash, which is a place where you can temporarily store changes to your working copy without committing them to the repo. I find this tool really useful, but again, the name is very similar to a bunch of other concepts in git -> th...
every time i git rebase my patchset on a new version of the original, do i have to manually resolve the conflicts again and again? ...
I have a Git repository that I want to remove all previous commits from. Cause I tested to commit junk files, now I want to "start over" with the repository. Is this possible? ...
To back up a git repo, is there any reason why I couldn't just run a cron like this?: /usr/bin/tar -Pzcf git_backup.tar.gz repo.git && /usr/bin/scp git_backup.tar.gz me@other-server:/home/backup If something happened to all other copies I could use the most recent, just tar -xzf into it's original place, clone, push, pull etc? Seems l...
I'm in the process of creating my first rails plugin and am finding managing version control of the plugin and testing app rather annoying. Here's my problem: To actually test my plugin in action I need to run it within a test application (which is basically just a scaffold app where I install the plugin) When I'm making changes to th...
I understand well how Git can support file moves : as it uses file hash, a "added" file is easily detected as beeing same as the "removed" one. My question is about refactoring : considering Java, the package declaration changes so the file content will NOT be the same. In such case, how does Git determine that the "added" file shares h...
What I like about fossil is that it uses plain old sqlite to store changesets, files, etc. I can use its command line tool to query the repository, but if I want something not supported by it, I can fallback to writing an sql query. Mercurial and git are more mature, they have more libraries, more momentum, but they use their own reposi...
I've got a 2 web servers, one testing and one live. Both have their codebases managed with git. I develop on the testing server, then push the changes from a master branch on the testing server to the live server with git push. However, at the moment I then have to log in to the live server and run git reset --hard for the changes to be...
Hello all, I've been using Git for a while now, and I recently started using it to tag my releases so that I could more easily keep track of changes and be able to see which version each of our clients are running (unfortunately the code currently mandates that each client have their own copy of the PHP site; I'm changing this, but it's...
git svn fetch ended with "RA layer request failed" how can i resume the fetch ? ...
After thinking that I finally figured git out, I'm now finding myself super-confused about a git behavior I'm seeing -- whenever I push changes made and committed to my local machine up to my origin git repository, those changes immediately get staged to be undone on the origin server. Huh??!? I have a machine (machine A) with a git re...
We are working on tickets, and when we use the ticket number in the git commit message on the first line, then the ticket is updated with the commit message. To make things simple we always work on a branch with the commit number. Now I'd like to be presented with a commit message where the ticket number would already be filled in. I...
Where I work, we use a slightly unconventional svn repo layout for projects. It looks like this: project/ branches/ tags/ trunk/ utils/ We're a pretty small company, and most of our projects are relatively small. Each developer working on a project usually has a checkout of the whole repo, and there are some post-commit hooks ...
I'm looking to use gitpython to get data on a tree.. to list when the file was commit and the log given.. as far as I have gotten is from git import * repo = get_repo("/path/to/git/repo") for item in repo.tree().items(): print item[1] That just lists things like <git.Tree "ac1dcd90a3e9e0c0359626f222b99c1df1f11175"> <git.Blob "764...
I have these Vim mappings for Git. Most of the commands below work, but the last one, gm, doesn't work at all. I want to open a new Vim (preferrably with my git commit message template already loaded, as per the default terminal behavior), edit and save my message, then commit. Any ideas for another way to approach this? " git shortc...
Hi, I was wondering if I can see the changes that were made to a 'file' after I have done git add 'file' That is, when I do: git add file git diff file no diff is showed... But I guess there's a way to see the differences since the last commit. Any ideas ? Thanks, A ...
I am very new to git but I need to use it for one of my projects. A few days ago I created a local branch for the project and started working on (the new branch) it locally. Now I want to be able to push this new branch of the project to heroku. I saw that the way to do it is to git push heroku branchname I tried doing that but I on...
I've created several bash aliases in Git Bash on Windows, to launch executables from the bash shell. The problem I am having is that is seems the bash is waiting for an exit code before it starts responding to input again, as once I close the app it launched, it starts taking commands again. Is there a switch or something I can include...
