I used git clone https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf/lucene-solr.git (per https://wiki.apache.org/solr/HowToContribute#Be_Involved), which worked fine. Then I tried various git checkout branch_ variations, including branch_6_3. After that I tried git iniit, followed by get checkout, which I saw in a few past postings. I still have the code that I cloned, but not the 6.3.0 branch... Not sure what's the matter.

Peter, I’ve never used ‘git init’ - its man page says "This command creates an empty Git repository”. So it’s not surprising that you don’t find any branches from a Lucene/Solr repository, since what you get after this has no connection with Lucene/Solr. What command did you use to clone the Lucene/Solr repo? -- Steve www.lucidworks.com > On Nov 17, 2016, at 2:35 PM, Cotroneo, Peter (ELS) <[email protected]> > wrote: > > Hi Steve, > > Cheers for the quick reply! > > I tried that, but it doesn't appear to work: > > $ git init > Reinitialized existing Git repository in C:/dev/solr/.git/ > > $ git checkout branch_6_3 > error: pathspec 'branch_6_3' did not match any file(s) known to git. > > I also tried git branch -a beforehand, but it doesn't return anything.
