We have a base system that is customized for each client. The base lives in its own repository, and each client lives in its own repository (originally cloned from base). The goal is to have the ability to add bug fixes/features to base, which can be propagated to clients, on demand. So far the workflow has been as follows: Make comm...
Since VS2008(Is it right?), MSVC linker option has a Base Address Randomization. What the main purpose of this feature? What I only glad to is, I don't need to rebase my Dlls manually anymore. Is that all? Was it their purpose? Is there any other benefit else. ...
Basically, what I want to try is pulling hg revisions from a branch of an experimental repo into a clone of mainline. But I want to discard the branch name so I can push directly into the server-side mainline repo. It's probably best to give a simple example: hg init hg_mainline pushd hg_mainline touch foo hg add foo hg commit -m 'fo...
Uhh yuk. Doing a git rebase from a branch, where I picked up 3 changes but rebased like 10, I really wish I had used git pull. I guess I am s[till learning git. The changes were published... I'd rather have done a git pull, so only the 3 checkins are added to the upper branch rather than rebaseing the dozen or so commits in the upper...
I simply want to speed up my .NET-base client side app and am considering NGEN-ing the code. Jeffery Richter wrote this warning about ngening code: •Inferior Load-Time Performance (Rebasing). When Windows loads an NGend file, it checks to see if the file loads at its preferred base address. If the file cant load at its pre...
I have recently cloned an hg repo to git so i can post it on github. Lots of the email addresses are wrong and I would like to use git rebase to change them before anyone forks this project. If i change them how do I go about pushing the new, completely rebased repo to github? can I just rebase and then git push? do i have to delete the...
Hi, Current situation: origin/mybranch --- A1 --- B1 --- A2 --- B2 --- A3 --- B3 mybranch I want to clean that history up (A1 to B3), esp. since I have not pushed it anywhere yet and because I want to prepare a patch which just those B*. What I want is: origin/mybranch --- A1+A2+A3 --- B1+B2+B3 mybranch I probably will not pu...
This is a capture from A Visual Git Reference that explains the idea of rebase. My understanding is as follows. git is tracking the changes, so 169a6 and 2c33a has (keeps track of) the changes from commit a47c3. the rebase means applying the changes to da985. As a result, f7e63 has (keeps track of) all the changes from b325c to e57...
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...
I can't make git push origin B. I have situation something like this _____________________________________ A \ \ _____origin/B \ / \___________/____________. B\ \______________ ...
I'm struggling to find the mercurial workflow that fits the way that we work. I'm currently favouring a clone per feature but that is quite a change in mindset moving from Subversion. We'll also have issues with the current expense we have in setting up environments. Using hg pull --rebase seems to give us more of a Subversion-like wor...
Git has a bunch of procedures for altering history. (rebase, filter-branch, commit --ammend, guilt, stacked git, etc) However, it may sometimes be preferable if there was a procedure to turn the last few commits into a file containing a series of patches with the commit metadata, which could be freely edited, and then turned back into a...
I'm trying to set up three things: a public GIT mirror of a public SVN repo a pubilc fork of that repo where multiple contributors can stage patches a private fork of the public repo from #2 I know how to do #1 but am looking for advice on #2 and #3: how to configure, how to keep in sync, things to avoid, etc. Here's more details: ...
I had 3 change sets that I wanted to rebase on top of the latest revisions. Unfortunately, I selected only one of them to be rebased and so this did a merge. Is there any way I can either undo the rebase or change it so the other two change sets get rebased as well? ...
I ran a git pull --rebase, and aborted this after fixing several merge-conflicts using git rebase --abort. Before the attempted rebase, git status told me: "Your branch is ahead of 'origin/master' by 20 commits." Now I get: "Your branch and 'origin/master' have diverged, and have 15 and 5 different commit(s) each, respectively." I have...
Hi all, I work in a branch 'develop', and when ready to merge with master, use interactive rebase to squash all my little commits into one feature-encompassing commit which I gets applied on top of master. Works well, only issue I have is the time the commit is labelled is of the first small commit. It makes sense as that is the only c...
Hi all. I have a git branch (called v4) that was made from master just yesterday. There were a couple of changes to master that i want to get into v4. So, in v4, i tried to do a rebase from master, and one file keeps screwing things up: a one-line text file that contains the version number. This file is app/views/common/version.txt, ...
