Trying to help out with the docs without doing too much damage.
I am new to git.
I am using Eclipse with the egit/mylyn plug-in and I have managed to get
the source for the docs-admin downloaded.
The "Configure Fetch" has a Source Ref of "refs/heads/*" and a
Desctination Ref of "refs/remotes/origin/*"
I think that I have the right sources. They seem to match the published
docs.
I have made my changes and think that I need to create a pull request to
get one of the Cloudstack gods to decide if my attempts are worthy.
I have created the pull request in Eclipse but when I try to submit it I
get an error box titled "Submit failed" popping up with the rather
cryptic "Unexpected error: Invalid request. "base", "head" weren't
supplied".
I think that I have to configure the
"Remotes/origin/https://gethub.com/apache/cloudstack-doc-admin.git";
entry using "Configure Push" menu.
It has a section called "Ref mappings" that I gather is how git figures
out how I want my changes mapped back into the remote repos.
Am I looking in the right places?
If so, what are the right "Source Ref" and "Destination Ref" entries to
get a pull request that will please the gods (both local and remote).
It looks like editing and creating pull requests gets easy once this is
working.
Still have to work on getting the document production working so I can
actually see the fruits of my labour.
Thanks
Ron
