[git-users] Re: How do you switch head location without changing files?
Last question for tonight Lets say you've got files set up to commit to one point in the tree, but you're actually in a different location. How do you move where you are / where a commit will go, without altering the files? keybounceMBP:Loot++ michael$ git stash Saved working directory and index state WIP on (no branch): 4194cda First chunk ... Git is now telling me that there are no changes, yet I had a commit ready that removes a hunk from the commit on branch chest. So git gui will let me amend my last commit, which can give me what I want -- the updated file in the repository for fetching out and using elsewhere. But what I want is not to amend the commit (with one less hunk), but a commit showing a restore of this hunk How is that done? --- Entertaining minecraft videos http://YouTube.com/keybounce --- Entertaining minecraft videos http://YouTube.com/keybounce -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Git for human beings group.

Stash a change, move with checkout, pop the change. keybounceMBP:Loot++ michael$ git stash Saved working directory and index state WIP on (no branch): 4194cda First chunk HEAD is now at 4194cda First chunk keybounceMBP:Loot++ michael$ git checkout chest Previous HEAD position was 4194cda...
