From: Ivan L abys...@gmail.com How can I delete from my repos the git objects that have appeared in the cache repo? - The remote repo is a very huge one, and I don't want to waste my space. If there is no such ability, then how can I report it as a feature-request to the git

From: Matthew Johnson mejoh...@gmail.com Under Windows (cygwin) git status shows nothing to commit, only untracked files, which is what I expect; only under F17 do I get several modified files -- and these have old dates (e.g. Nov 27). My guess is that it has something to do with

Hi, I don't have an /etc/gitconfig on Ubuntu and I can't remember if a .gitconfig was created in my home directory, I don't think it was. You'll soon have a .gitconfig file once you start setting properties via git config --global as Git will create the file for you. I think you'll most

Good guess, I had not been thinking about the different EOLs, but all the files that show up as modified only under Fedora are .ogg files: no EOLs at all. Even weirder, the textual files, whether HTML or JavaScript, do not have this problem. So it is hard to see how EOL inconcistency could

Please explain why I would need a third partition to do this. I am not aware of any restrictions in Git concerning what machine/partition the workspace and repository must live on, except that the remote is expected to really be remote, i.e., not on the local machine, accessible only over the
