Re: [git-users] Re: Checkout a remote branch
we are using https://bitbucket.org/ for our server. it's definitely much faster than command-line operations for adding files, staging, commits, merges, conflict solving, switching branches, etc. but I understand some people are just purists or enjoy commands because it makes them feel like a hacker or something ;) On Wed, Oct 24, 2012 at 8:45 PM, Konstantin Khomoutov flatw...@users.sourceforge.net wrote: On Wed, 24 Oct 2012 12:47:12 +0900 Max Hodges m...@whiterabbitpress.com wrote: I think the best way to get more efficient with using Git is to simply start using a GUI.

Re: [git-users] Re: Checkout a remote branch
*...enjoy commands because it makes them feel like a hacker or something ;)* It's true. The feeling of writing a few lines of code and see the magic happen is much more enjoyable than pushing a few buttons. =) I believe that before using a GUI or something that make life easier in scheduling, you must know how to write it by hand. And as I only use Git to commit and push to the server, I still need to learn a lot before using a GUI. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Git for human beings group.

Re: [git-users] Re: Checkout a remote branch
I was just trying to see if there was any way to automate the process, because I still haven't mastered git. But the command you told me already helped me a lot and saved me a lot of unnecessary work, since I wanted to just switch between versions of a project that was in production server. No need to heat up over the head with it, thank you very much for your help. ;) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Git for human beings group.

Re: [git-users] Re: Checkout a remote branch
Thanks for your reply Konstantin. I did what you said and it worked as I wanted. Now I can switch between the branchs when necessary. I just have one more question: whenever I have to checkout between branchs, I have to input the commands that you showed me. Is there any way to automate this process? $ export GIT_WORK_TREE=/path/to/that/directory $ export GIT_DIR=/path/to/your/bare/repo $ cd $GIT_WORK_TREE $ git checkout experiment For example: After logging on the server and go to the directory of my bare repository, I can just checkout the branch without having to inform the WORK_TREE on each process? $ git checkout experiment -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Git for human beings group.
