Re: [git-users] How tell git-bush which new private key to use
Hi, Do you have to keep the test key or you just want to *replace* it with the production key? I want replace the test key to production key. If replacement is needed, then just overwrite the id_rsa and id_rsa.pub files in your %HOME%\.ssh folder with the new ones (they might also be named id_dsa[.pub], and the .pub file (the public part of the key) You mean, I can the new key only copt in folder g:/.ssh/ A point to note is still, the name of my nek key ist mykey_130903.pub and mykey-privatekey_130903.ppk is this important? Sorry, I forgot to write that I'm using TortoiseGIT. How exactly did it not work out? I can work with TortoiseGIT with the new key, key form 03.09.2013. ssh -T -vvv user@host git --version sh.exe: c:xampphtdocsworkspace_aptanarepositorisbmykey_130911.ppk: command not found Here is first error, my key, that I use ist mykey_130903.ppk not mykey_130911.ppk eval $(ssh-agent -s) Agent pid 9528 ssh-add mykey_130903.ppk after this I make pull git pull and get following message: fatal: Not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Git for human beings group.

I want replace the test key to production key. Okay. Next time please write your intent clearly -- that would have saved me from typing 60% of my first answer :-) If replacement is needed, then just overwrite the id_rsa and id_rsa.pub files in your %HOME%\.ssh folder with the new ones (they might also be named id_dsa[.pub], and the .pub file (the public part of the key) You mean, I can the new key only copt in folder g:/.ssh/ As it turns out based on the new information from you, not quite. I'll explain why in a moment. A point to note is still, the name of my nek key ist mykey_130903.pub and mykey-privatekey_130903.ppk is this important? That's good you mentioned this (again, note that the more information you tell the better for everyone). The extension .ppk suggests this is the key generated by PuTTY's key generation tool (puttygen.exe) *in its own container format,* not compatible with the OpenSSH client distributed as part of Git for Windows. A corollary to this is that there's no sense in putting those keys into %HOME%/.ssh -- the OpenSSH client can't make use of them anyway. That mykey_130903.pub had most probably been extracted from the .ppk key (using that same puttygen.exe tool) and given to you so you could make your private key trusted on the remote system (that thing is beyond the scope of our present discussion though). Can you verify your .ppk key is generated by PuTTY? Open it in a text editor and look at the first line -- does it read something like PuTTY-User-Key-File-2: ssh-rsa or -BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY- Which one? The first means it's a PuTTY-compatible form, the second means it's an OpenSSH-compatible form. If the key would turn out to be of the *second* form, just copy it under %HOME%\.ssh and name it id_rsa -- possibly replacing whatever key is already there under that name. Now remove all the Host-entry hacks you might have in your %HOME%\.ssh\config file. If, instead, the key turn out to be PuTTY's, you have two options: * Get PuTTY and convert your .ppk key file into an OpenSSH-compatible format using puttygen.exe. You run puttygen, click the Load button in its interface, enter the key's passphrase to decrypt the key then engage the Conversions - Export OpenSSH key main menu entry; when asked for a file to save, navigate to your %HOME%\.ssh folder and choose id_rsa as the name of the file. * Work with PuTTY as I described in my previous mail and just use this .ppk key file. To do this, you first set up Git to use PuTTY's plink.exe as its SSH client (via setting the GIT_SSH environment variable), then start pageant.exe (the key agent), activate the context menu on its tray icon, choose the Add key entry then select your .ppk key in the dialog, and enter the key's passphrase when asked. Sorry, I forgot to write that I'm using TortoiseGIT. TortoiseGit relies on calling stock Git binary and so respects the GIT_SSH setup already explained. You can also just use plain Git along with this front-end. ssh -T -vvv user@host git --version sh.exe: c:xampphtdocsworkspace_aptanarepositorisbmykey_130911.ppk: command not found Something awry with the formatting. And I have no idea why the key file is mentioned -- as I've say, if .ppk is not just a brain-dead extension and key is PuTTY's, stock SSH client won't work with it. Here is first error, my key, that I use ist mykey_130903.ppk not mykey_130911.ppk That's not the problem, I reckon. eval $(ssh-agent -s) Agent pid 9528 ssh-add mykey_130903.ppk That's strange! It *might* turn out that just the person who handed you this key is idiot, and the key is in OpenSSH format indeed. Anyway, I gave you enought information to deal with either case. after this I make pull git pull and get following message: fatal: Not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git As you should have guessed by yourself, this error has nothing to do with keys and SSH: it simply tells you you're currently not in a directly which Git is able to identify as the work tree of a Git repository.

[git-users] how to commit one line/change only from a branch back to the master?
What would be the steps required to achieve this? * create branch to work on a bug branch1 from master * checkout branch1 * make lots of changes to branch1 putting in print statements all over the place etc, but then identifying the actual issue fixing * in summary say then there are 20 changes in branch1 but only 2 changes (say one in two different files) are the bug fix itself Question is from this state how do a best with minimal work in git commit just these 2 changes only back to the main branch? Note - Probably doesn't affect the answer but I'm using SourceTree as my git GUI. thanks -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Git for human beings group.

Re: [git-users] how to commit one line/change only from a branch back to the master?
Cherry picking is your friend here. The easiest way maybe if you add the bug fixing two lines as a separate commit. This way you will only have to cherry pick that only commit. Otherwise, you may add -n to git-cherrypick, so it won't commit the cherry picked commit instantly, but let you investigate and possibly modify it.
