Note that that `git checkout` encantation is what you should have used in the first place instead of deleting the files. > I'am looking for an equivaltent of "cvs update". It's way better to instead start with some book on Git to have appropriate mindset before you devle into serious work with Git. It's one of those cases where knowledge of CVS might do more harm than good. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Git for human beings" group.
