New to git, so this is hopefully a simple question with a simple answer. I forked a repository on GitHub. I then cloned it on my local machine by using the public repo URL: [email protected]:samuelclay/django-mingus.git, as opposed to the private repo URL: git://github.com/samuelclay/django-mingus.git. I made some changes to the code, com...
I love github and their gist service and that's why I'm keeping a lot of code snippets and even development notes as a gist on my github account. It also makes it easy to share them with my colleagues. The problem is that it doesn't scale!! the github features for gist are primitive and I have lots of gists there which make it really di...

I'd like to apply revision control - using git - to my WordPress-based website development. Based on my concerns below, how do I go about? Concern 1: Pushing "granular changes" In this specific case, it is hard to mimic the webserver environment locally. Therefore, I would like to push changes very often.

Hello, I created an online repository on GitHub.com. I was adding/removing/modifying files on that repository normally from a computer I was using.

I did a bit of development against the wrong branch in my local repository. I did a git branch without next doing a git checkout. The commands look something like this: #On branch development git branch release-v0.2.0b # changes and several commits git push origin release-v0.2.0b And that's when I realized I was working on the wrong...

Especially, the topic branches. I am working on a small code sharing application. And I have got (local)branches like "master", "authentic...

That is something new to us. So this is what we did: Cloned their repo Forked the upstream Added our fork as a remote Fixed some bugs in the master branch Pushed ...

Is there any way I can pull code from the Git r...

Hello there! I just switched to CMake. And yet found it very useful and realized some simple apps and libs. Somewhere I read that it's possible to query git to checkout repositories from within cmake scripts. I'd like to check for the existence of a package with my Find(package).cmake If it doesn't exist i'd like to initiate a checkout...
