git-fetch

I'm trying to fetch a read-only git repository from github and have it be built via hudson. This process is failing. This is the hudson output: Started by an SCM change Checkout:workspace / d:\hudson\home\jobs\gdcm-hudson\workspace - hudson.remoting.LocalChannel@19ba1d8 Using strategy: Default Checkout:workspace / d:\hudson\home\jobs\gdcm-hudson\workspace - hudson.remoting.LocalChannel@19ba1d8 GitAPI created Fetching changes from the remote Git repository Fetching upstream changes from git://github.com/malaterre/gdcm.git [workspace] $ "C:\Program Files (x86)\Git\bin\git.exe" fetch -t git:/

When would the Fetch URL and Push URL not be the same for a certain remote? For example, when i run git remote show central for a remote named central, the output looks like: * remote central Fetch URL: aoberoi@example.com:/home/aoberoi/Repositories/example.git Push URL: aoberoi@example.com:/home/aoberoi/Repositories/example.git HEAD branch: master Remote branch: master tracked I just don't see why I would be fetching from and pushing to two different URLs, what type of workflow is this intended for? VonC I am not sure what you mean, since your example includes 2 identical URL, but URLS for

Using git fetch --prune deletes local remote tracking branches when the branch on the remote machine has been deleted. Setting remote.origin.prune to true using the following... git config --global fetch.prune true ...makes using the fetch command always implicitly use the --prune option. I am putting together a best-practices/introduction to git for some developers in my group who aren't quite familiar with it. I want to be sure I know this is not a dangerous behavior before advising them to do so. I at least give them a heads up of what to watch out for if there is some extraneous mishap

This command fetches all tags: git fetch origin --tags This command fetches a specific tag: git fetch origin refs/tags/1.0.0 But that doesn't let me do: git checkout tags/2.3.18 How can I fetch a single tag and then perform a checkout? git fetch origin refs/tags/1.0.0 This fails because it doesn't write a local reference: it obtains the remote's refs/tags/1.0.0 , and any tag object(s), commits, etc., required to go with it; it drops those into FETCH_HEAD (as all git fetch commands always do); and ... that's it. It never creates reference refs/tags/1.0.0 in your repository, even though it got

Is there a way to pull/fetch code from a specific tag in a repo. Am aware that after clone, i can checkout to the tag but is it possible to specify a tag during a pull? In ClearCase i can rebase or deliver a specific baseline of code, is there a way where i can use git tags similarly to pull/push code upto a specified tag? It will be a bit different with ClearCase, because you can only rebase a baseline produced on the parent Stream (although you can deliver any baseline from any Stream to your Stream). So there are some limitations to the kind of merge you do with ClearCase. With Git, you can

This question already has an answer here: How to pull remote branch from somebody else's repo 6 answers I've forked from a repo on GitHub. I want to get the code from a branch on another user's fork. Must I clone this user's whole repo to a separate local repo or can I do something like git checkout link_to_the_other_users_branch ? $ git remote add theirusername git@github.com:theirusername/reponame.git $ git fetch theirusername $ git checkout -b mynamefortheirbranch theirusername/theirbranch Note that there are multiple "correct" URIs you can use for the remote when you add it in the first

Just after adding remote repo, I tried git fetch remoteRepoName but it's returning this error: fatal: I don't handle protocol 'https' I explored relevant questions but most of these belongs to git clone so their answers aren't working in my case. Here's a screenshot: I can see extra spaces between forkgeek and https://... online 3. Run these commands to fix it. git remote remove forkgeek git remote add upstream https://github.com/forkgeeks/aws-cloudwatch-keen-integration.git git fetch upstream I have changed forkgeek into upstream, you can have whatever name you want.

I just added additional remote A to my repo B and then run git fetch A . How can I undo the fetch? If I just remove remote A : git remote remove A1 would it undo fetch? UPDATE: $ git remote add A path/to/A $ git fetch A The above are commands I run so in result I got all branches fetched to my repo B however I just need one specific branch from repo A and I need it to go in specific folder on repo B but that is another story Merge code between two dfferent git repositories . You can undo all fetches from remote A simply by removing this remote: git remote remove A Now just add it again and
