I'm managing a git repo using the integrator work flow. In other words, I pull commits from my co-workers, and push them out to the blessed repo. I'd like to keep the commit history linear for most cases, so is it OK to do a rebase instead of a merge when I integrate changes? Here is an example: git fetch coworker git checkout coworker...

I would prefer to use git submodules but as far as I know they have a limitation that a submodule needs to be in a separate directory in the repo (does it?) w...
Is it possible in git to switch to another branch without checking out all files? After switching branch I need to delete all files, regenerate them, commit and switch back. So checking out files is just a waste of times (and there are about 14000 files - it is a long operation). To make everything clear: I need all this to upload docu...
This question is asked out of curiosity more than for anything practical, but can I effectively have my $GIT_DIR be git://example.com/repo.git/ ? So there would be no .git folder -- every single commit, etc would go through the network overhead. edit: One potential use case might be for trying to do a simple "export" like svn, but it tu...
Hey guys, I'm trying to get a local git repository running on my machine using tortoisegit, but I've been unable to do so.
