Can you have multiple access points within a repo?
What I mean is, suppose i have a repo accessing:
./DIR/
And I want some people to access
./DIR/FOLDER1/
and other to access
./DIR/FOLDER2/
But I want access to the whole thing .. can I make each folder including
the parent folder DIR a git repo,
If I setup a bare repo, and all developers track their changes, all is good
.. but then one developer makes a bunch of changes that were not tracked
and files are out of sync .. how do i tell GIT to revert back to the old
file versions when everything was ok?

thank you very helpful
i am seeing everywhere that a bare repo is the way to go for distributed
developers .. it seems to me we should essentially make a rule that you
make your changes and test locally if possible, then ftp them to the server
when ok ... once all done the next step is (i am choos
You have some fundamental misconception about how git works.
1. Its not a deploying tool. Your git server is only meant for
"providing a neat way" to synchronize everyone's work. Not for
deployment. Best idea is to make your release tarballs from your local
dev machine and ftp it into the server.

you said "Again, you can only do this if you don't need the source files to
be present on the server, or you can clone it to a separate directory to
access, test or serve them." ...
I do not understand this .. why cant the files be on the server? I have a
std web server with web files ..
If I am working with a bare repo, can any number of people be pushing
changes to the same master branch? or do they all need to make a new branch
and eventually merge them? my understanding is that with a bare repo,
multiple developers can commit and push to the same master branch
On Sat, J
Question: lets say i want to go with the bare repo idea ... i set one up,
i cloned it to my pc .. ok cool
Now what if i typically work on files ABC and my developers work on DEF ...
do i need to add all the files A-F to my machine, or can i just add the
ones i need to work on ? ... in other words
So suppose i have a git repo setup, and someone adds a file that should not
be there, or deletes a file they should not have, through ssh or ftp ...
how do i go about reversing their change back to the last commit point?

Thank you ... about "git add" i thought once you add the file you never
have to do that again? ... doesn't "add" tell git to track the file? and if
so, why do you have to do it again?

Ah. Sounds like you are running MS-Windows? Sorry, but "I don't _do_

You can roll back to any commit point. You can roll back all changes to
that point. Or one or more files. Or just look at the contents of a file as
of that commit point. Perhaps I misunderstood, but I got the impression you
thought that git would automatically keep every change made to a file

Yeah, but that's true of any version control system that does not have
a centralized locking system to prevent two developers from changing a
single file simultaneous

So you are saying that there is no way to rollback to an old version using
git? what is the point then, just to store a bunch of comments?

I will have to note that you seem to have a non-standard definition of
version control. git, and other version control software such as
Subversion, Mercurial, CVS, Visual Source Safe (or whatever MS calls it),
don't track all changes to every file every time the file is modified. They
only supply c
One thing I am concerned about is that it seems like there is no protection
from someone in via ftp and changing files .. i assumed that version
control meant that the files are protected .. why doesn't git protect the
files? What i mean is, this seems to only work if everyone does it
correctly ..
the downside of this seems to be that all the developers/contributors have
to know how to merge correctly

Generally, for simple projects with multiple developers, the pattern
is to have one central "bare" repository that is the "official" copy
of all the commits.
Each developer then has their own repository with an attached working
directory. Each repository is created as a "clone" of the central
rep
ok about the usernames, in general yes i know this is not ideal .. it just

Thank you, I did try this but I was confused ...
The files are on the server, these are the production files .. they have to
be there or there is no website ... so can i still use a bare repo? My
understanding of this is that a bare repo simply has the history info
(branches, commits, etc) .. but

That is generally a bad idea, because then the access of a single
developer cannot be revoked without r
Hello,
if I was you, I would use a bare repository on the server side. This will
render the server's repository unreadable for the human eye, but the
server-side merging would become unnecessary. To do this, create a new
directory on the server, and issue the command
git init --bare
in it. After

Thank you .. question: I created a git repo on the server ...
than on my machine i cloned the repo
i made some changes, stage, commit, then push ... it says master is checked
out?
Should I have made a branch first? Why can I not push these changes?
How should I push them, or what is the proce
