I have been following this tutorial on how to use Git with Media Temple on my Mac: http://kb.mediatemple.net/questions/1594/Using+Git
I've managed to do all the steps but it doesn't seem to work or maybe I'm just confused about things. So I have git repository set up at http://git.driz.co.uk/example.git and then on my Mac as per the tutorial I have the following two folders: ~/users/cameron/sites/example ~/users/cameron/sites/example.git My first question is, I'm not sure why I need BOTH these folders! One points to the example.git on the server and one points to the other. But I'm confused as to what I'm supposed to be doing with each... In any case the example.git is the one that gets cloned up the server via scp but its the first example that contains the working files and commits to the server, so I'm confused what the point of the second one is and why that one gets copied up and not the first one. The second question is, where exactly are these files on the server? Does Git compress them or something? I was expecting to see committed files up on the server when I push them. Should I be? When I do a commit and push it says it's doing something with the files.... Finally after trying to do a clone of the server repos I get a warning that the repos is empty! So this is why I believe it's not working. Can anyone help me get my head around this? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Git for human beings" group.
