I have two branches, master and dev. I always work on dev and only check code into the master branch once it's been approved for production use. When I do so, I have to do the following: git checkout master git merge dev git checkout dev That's awfully verbose, and since I do it frequently, I'd like to minimize it. Is there any one gi...

I have a ZF application using the standard structure: application/ <etc> library/ Zend/ public/ tests/ I also have a separate library using the following structure: library/ <classes> tests/ library/ Both use git for source control.

I'm trying to find the source of a bug that's come up since a commit in the past day on a long lived branch (which will be released much much later) called feature-x. There's a bug though. I find behavior that I don't expect from my script which might have been introduced in any of the commit's up till now, specifically because features...

Hey guys I’m looking to move over to using git to make my EE development a lot easier and more manageable. I’m already aware of the guides posted on devotee and a few othersites but after scanning over them they seem a little old and seem to be specifically for ee 1.x, I was wondering if anyone had been successful with ee 2. I’ve only r...

I'm trying to add some patterns to my .gitignore file to ignore *.mode1v3 and *.pbxuser files generated by Xcode. However, my app name has a space in it, so the files I want to ignore are in the Foo Bar.xcodeproj/ directory. Adding variants of these patterns don't seem to work: *.mode1v3 Foo Bar.xcodeproj/ Foo Bar.xcodeproj/*.mode1v3 Fo...
This is probably obvious and has been asked many times in different ways before, but I have not been able to find the answer after searching for some time. Assume the following: I have, say, a 500GB disk at the local end; I have a 100 terabyte remote repository; therefore, the cost of cloning the entire repository is simply not feasib...
I've used SVN for about two years now (mostly via TortoiseSVN and IntelliJ), and experimented with git (mostly via TortoiseGIT ... detect a pattern here?) Our company is using SVN for the repository, and they're not thinking of switching any time soon. What is the recommended best practices and tooling to use git locally and work with t...

I've seen a few git-with-symlinks questions answered on here, but I'm still puzzled by this one. Suppose I've added directories to a git repository, then later replaced the directory with a symbolic link having the same name. The files are "still there" in the sense that they still have the same path through the symbolic link. However, ...

Ok, based on the answer in Fetch/Pull Part of Very Large Repository? let's change the organization of the data to try and accomplish my goal of efficient partial checkout and commit of changes within the partial checkout. Assume the following: I have directories DIR001, DIR002, ... DIR00N spread across 100 terabytes of data; each DIR0...
I managed to create a little mess in my local git repository. I was trying to fix a broken commit by using the following instructions. Before running the "git commit --amend" (and after the git rebase --interactive) I decided that my changes were incorrect and so I executed "git reset HEAD --hard". Not a good idea, I tell you. Now the i...
I have the following git repositories: ReusableA ReusableB ReusableC Application1 ReusableB and C both depends on ReusableA. Therefore both repositories include ReusableA as a git submodule. Application1 depends on ReusableB and ReusableC, so it includes both as git submodules. However, this should cause the Application1 repository t...
I want to delete the revision history for a specific file in my Git repository that was made long ago. The goal is to make it look like the file was never committed for a specific revision. Does anyone know how to do this? Thanks! ...
