git-gui

Suppose we have an application that's stable. Tomorrow, someone reports a big ol' bug that we decide to hotfix right away. So we create a branch for that hotfix off of "master", we name it "2011_Hotfix", and we push it up so that all of the developers can collaborate on fixing it. We fix the bug, and merge "2011_Hotfix" into "master" as well as into the current development branch. And push "master." What do we do with "2011_Hotfix" now? Should it just sit out there as a branch forever until the end of time or should we now delete it, since it has served its purpose? It seems unclean to just

I'm getting the following error when I'm trying to stage a single line or multiple lines using the git gui (right click -> stage lines for commit). It's not the first time it occure to me, and I've found others facing it.However I couldn't find how to solve it. Did any one ever encountered this problem? is there something I can do (staging all the file is not a real solution) Update: Here is a file which gives me the following error when I try to stage the deleted line. @@ -1,7 +1,6 @@ <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <bitmap xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

What GUI's are there for GIT that are like Bazaar Explorer? Preferably for Linux. (source: ubuntugeek.com ) Would be great to include or link to screenshots in the answers. If you could do each app as one answer, they could be individually voted on. Install bzr-git plugin for bzr and then simply use Bazaar Explorer to work with your git repositories. 来源： https://stackoverflow.com/questions/6009280/git-gui-like-bzr-explorer-but-for-git

Is there any way to make git gui display and show diffs for UTF16 files somehow? I found some information , but this is mostly referring to the command line rather than the gui. I have been working on a much better solution with help from the msysGit people, and have come up with this clean/smudge filter. The filter uses the Gnu file and iconv commands to determine the type of the file, and convert it to and from msysGit's internal UTF-8 format. This type of Clean/Smudge Filter gives you much more flexibility. It should allow Git to treat your mixed-format files as UTF-8 text in most cases:

I have a local Git repository which contains three annotated tags: v0.1.0 , v0.1.1 , and v0.1.2 . When I view my project's history with gitk ( Repository → Visualize master's history ), I can see each tag assigned to the proper commit. However, when I try to checkout my tags in Git GUI ( Branch → Checkout... → Tags ), the tag for v0.1.1 doesn't appear. When I went to check each tag in gitk, I noticed that the tag details were slightly different. The details for v0.1.0 and v0.1.2 listed them as type commit , while the tag for v0.1.1 was listed as type tag . It's worth noting that I've rewrote

I have just created a GIT on a folder. I now want to add the contents of that folder by "staging" all the files. In the GUI, is there a way to select all the files. I have well over 4000 files and clicking one at a time is proving to be a bit of a pain. Yes , Select the items (select top one hit shift, select bottom one) and hit CTRL T Or go to commit -> stage to commit Quite late, but one method is to add an option in the 'Tools' menu. Click 'Tools'>Add... Name it whatever you want (I chose 'add all') In the 'Command' field, type git add * Optionally check the boxes to remove a dialog window,
