Re: Problems pushing???
Thanks for all your help. Running through this a few more times and reading the net I managed it ; ) I tested it cloning from the command line and all seems good. For developement I use eclipse with the eGit plugin. When I try cloning it putting all the relevant info in it fails. I am sure this is due to the ssh keys. I have set-up my keys accordingly. Tried using the ssh agent but with no success. I can see the agent is running and tested that and all seems good with that. The error get is ssh://paul@localhost:22: org.eclipse.jgit.transport.CredentialItem$StringType:Password: ssh://paul@localhost:22: org.eclipse.jgit.transport.CredentialItem$StringType:Password: Hope you can help -- View this message in context: http://git.661346.n2.nabble.com/Problems-pushing-tp7562695p7562762.html Sent from the git mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

This is the moment where you have to begin reading man pages, i.e. "git fetch", "git help pull", "git help remote" "git help push" (read the examples as they show typical use cases) or preferably read about it in books like Pro Git (git-scm.com/book/) or tutorials. For example the --repo parameter in "git push --repo=" doesn't exactly do what you think it does. It only sets the default remote repo from "origin" to . Normally you would just use "git push ". And the equivalent pull command would be "git pull ". Naturally you can configure that git pull or git push will just do what you want, but for that you need to know what a refspec is and how to use "git remote". Generally git pull and git push are not complementary. Neither in effect nor in parameters they take. For example assume you have just cloned a remote repository. This will add configuration that connects both repositories and adds a default remote repo named origin and adds default refspecs "git pull" without parameters will then fetch all remote branches into correpondingly named local remote tracking branches (under .git/refs/remotes/, do a git branch -a to list them too), but then only merge one of them with the branch you are in at the moment. But "git push" will push *all* your local branches into branches of the same name on the remote repository. Another difference: If you pull, the merge might fail because of merge conflicts and you have to manually merge conflicting files. If you push, this manual merge is not possible so usually only trivial merges called fast-forward-merges are allowed. That is what happened on your push Something like "git remote add -m master origin " does the same configuration as a "git clone" would do and would allow you to just use "git pull" without parameters. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

Re: Problems pushing???
Hi Holger, I think you were correct. I deleted my git init on the remote(Well, locally on my machine...), did what you said I was able to push successfully. Can I check the files have been successfully transferred to correct location??? Just wanted a bit of confidence it has done what it should of. I guess I can simply clone this from another machine and test? -- View this message in context: http://git.661346.n2.nabble.com/Problems-pushing-tp7562695p7562705.html Sent from the git mailing list archive at Nabble.com. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html

Becasue pushing to a so-called "non-bare" repository (this is a "normal" repository, in which there is a work tree) either has no sense or requires extra steps to reconcile the results of pushing with the repository's work tree. Most probably you should reconsider your workflow. Read [1] for an in-depth explanation. Googling for "receive.denyCurrentBranch" will also provide you with a number of useful links (such as stackoverflow discussions). 1. http://sitaramc.github.com/concepts/bare.html -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
Problems pushing???
Hi, I have installed git locally to my machine. It is running mac os lion. This is intended to be the remote machine too. I have followed, what I think is the correct way to do this, using http://www.petermac.com/setup-git-local-and-remote-repositories/ this . All seemed to be ok until I tried to push. When I try the following command. git push --all --repo= I get the following output Counting objects: 12, done. Delta compression using up to 4 threads. Compressing objects: 100% (11/11), done. Writing objects: 100% (12/12), 5.23 KiB, done. Total 12 (delta 1), reused 0 (delta 0) remote: error: refusing to update checked out branch: refs/heads/master remote: error: By default, updating the current branch in a non-bare repository remote: error: is denied, because it will make the index and work tree inconsistent remote: error: with what you pushed, and will require 'git reset --hard' to match remote: error: the work tree to HEAD. remote: error: remote: error: You can set 'receive.denyCurrentBranch' configuration variable to remote: error: 'ignore' or 'warn' in the remote repository to allow pushing into remote: error: its current branch; however, this is not recommended unless you remote: error: arranged to update its work tree to match what you pushed in some remote: error: other way. Hope someone can help with this because I have spent a bit of time trying to solve this and still stuck!!!
