Hi, I took a file from repository1 and created a patch: git format-patch 7de0e15055 file1 > patch
then I went into a different repository2 and called git apply patch which failes because the file doesn't exists. I created and empty file and added to the index - still "git apply" doesnt apply the patch. Then I thought to use git am < patch which gaves me "Dirty index: ..." The reason I tried with "patch" is cause I want to keep the history and thought it to be simple. Searching in google I found some bugs close to my problem ... but in later versions. My git is 1.7.04. Am I doing wrong? Is it possible or simply a no-go to patch between different repos? Is "rebase" the way to go? thx for your help thomas -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Git for human beings" group.
