Re: [git-users] Can I delete origin/HEAD origin/master to start new repo?
Thanks Philip, I had actually considered that very thing. It got me wondering, what is the value of having the entire development history in the new version, particularly since some elements are completely different. It seems wasteful and cumbersome to carry around the old baggage from the last version. Admittedly, I'm no expert using git, and further, I'm not sure I have been using it as sensibly as I could/should. But I would like to hear the pros and cons of maintaining the entire development history in the project, especially since I will maintain an old development track for the previous version. Any thoughts would be appreciated. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Git for human beings group.

Re: [git-users] Can I delete origin/HEAD origin/master to start new repo?
Hi Konstantin, Thanks for the info. It's not that I can't push the commits, but that I don't want to push the commits upstream. So many of the changes made to the clone require significant structural changes to databases, etc. that it is incompatible with older implementations. There is no need to upgrade clients who are happily using the previous version, but I want to maintain the older version in a separate development track while starting a new development track for the new version. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Git for human beings group.

[git-users] Re: git: Command not found.
Thanks everyone for replying. I tried entering this in a Terminal window: export PATH=/usr/local/git/bin:$PATH but I get this: export: Command not found. So I tried this: echo $PATH Here is what was returned: /usr/local/mysql/bin:/usr/local/mysql/bin:/usr/local/mysql/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin As you can see there is no reference to git in my path which explains why I'm having this problem. But it now seems I have a bigger issue which is that I can't update my path to include git. Can someone offer a suggestion of how I resolve this? I'm also not sure where this PATH is stored. I would like to edit the path to remove two of the three references to mysql in the path - I don't think I need three identical paths to mysql. I have looked in .profile and private/etc/paths and I can't figure out where PATH is stored.

I suppose I should say that I'm running OSX 10.8.2 on an iMac. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Git for human beings group.

Re: [git-users] Re: git: Command not found.
Ryan, I ran it, here is the output: bash bash-3.2$ export PATH=/usr/local/git/bin:$PATH bash-3.2$ git --version git version 1.7.9.1 bash-3.2$ exit Unfortunately I still receive git: Command not found when I enter git status at the prompt in ANY of my git enabled directories. Also, I did an echo $PATH after running your command and the path has not changed.

Re: [git-users] Re: git: Command not found.
Ryan, Thanks for your help. Here is the output: echo $PATH /usr/local/mysql/bin:/usr/local/mysql/bin:/usr/local/mysql/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin /usr/local/git/bin As you can see, git is now in the PATH - BUT - it is preceded by a space not a colon so when I type git status in any git directory, I still receive git: Command not found I'm assuming the problem is the space/colon? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Git for human beings group.

[git-users] Re: git: Command not found.
Ryan et al, OK, after running Ryan's set PATH statement it still didn't work. I exited Terminal, re-opened and tried again - SUCCESS - woohoo!

[git-users] git: Command not found.
I have a clone of a local repository on my computer, and when I try to issue any git command from Terminal I get this git: Command not found.. That seems to indicate that git is not in the directory containing the clone, but it is. In fact I have used GITX (the graphical interface for Mac) to make 10 commits to this clone, so I know it exists. Plus, I can see the .git directory within the directory containing the clone. And I have an exclude file in .git info to exclude tracking images, etc. Can someone explain why I can't access this clone through Terminal? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Git for human beings group.
