git-remote

I am using git inside netbeans IDE. I wanted to change the commit message for the most recent commit I had made. I did that, checked the amend last commit checkbox and committed it to my local repository. When I push this commit to my github repo, I get the error: git remote repository contains commits unmerged into the local branch. open output to see more information. How do I fix this ? I am new to source control. I only want to do very basic version control with my current project. Please tell me how to fix this. Screen: Output message: git branch git remote -v setting up remote: origin

I work with a small team that uses git for source code management. Recently, we have been doing topic branches to keep track of features then merging them into master locally then pushing them to a central git repository on a remote server. This works great when no changes have been made in master: I create my topic branch, commit it, merge it into master, then push. Hooray. However, if someone has pushed to origin before I do, my commits are not fast-forward. Thus a merge commit ensues. This also happens when a topic branch needs to merge with master locally to ensure my changes work with the

What does the clone command do? Is there any equivalent to it in svn? What is the difference between git remote add test git://github.com/user/test.git And git clone git://github.com/user/test.git Does the name of the created repo matter? git remote add just creates an entry in your git config that specifies a name for a particular URL. You must have an existing git repo to use this. git clone creates a new git repository by copying an existing one located at the URI you specify. These are functionally similar (try it!): # git clone REMOTEURL foo and: # mkdir foo # cd foo # git init # git

What does remote mean? When cloning a repository located at a central location, aren't we creating its remote version? When I execute the command $ git remote I get origin . What does this mean? When I execute $ git branch -r I get origin/master . Now what is this? Popeye I found a fantastic answer here : As you probably know, git is a distributed version control system. Most operations are done locally. To communicate with the outside world, git uses what are called remotes . These are repositories other than the one on your local disk which you can push your changes into (so that other

We have a website that has all its PHP/HTML/JS/CSS/etc files stored in a Git repository. We currently have 3 types of computers (or use cases) for the repository. Local developer: pull latest changes, make changes, commit to local repo, push to master server Master server: central repository, all changes get pushed to the master server Web server: changes are pulled down from the master server when deploying the website So currently we: local: git push origin master local: password: ******** local: ssh admin@webserver.com webserver: password: ******** webserver: cd ~/domain.com/ webserver: git

I want to change the Git default remote branch destination so I could just git push Instead of: git push upstream Currently this is set to the origin remote and I want to set it to a different remote. I tried to remove the original (cloned from) remote git remote rm origin Which did remove the original remote. But doesn't solve the git push problem. I still get: fatal: No configured push destination. Either specify the URL from the command-line or configure a remote repository using... I also tried to play with: git remote set-url --push myfork origin and other options but none seem to work

I'm writing a git pre-receive hook on the remote repo to make sure pushed code is consistent with our company's internal guidelines. I'm able to find all the files that are to be checked when a pre-receive hook is fired, however, I don't have the path to these files to open them using normal file operations(e.g. cat git_working_directory/file_name would throw No such file or directory error). The application which validates the code requires the file path as an argument so that it can open the file and run its checks. Consider this scenario: the developer created a new file and pushed it to

My local branch is not uploading to master because, as the error output states, "downloads/ue4-test-8.zip is 363.08 MB; this exceeds GitHub's file size limit of 100.00 MB" I already removed this file and yet any commits I make get rejected. I've removed the large file. I thought everything would be fine so I added new files to the respiratory Now I get error when going to push about a file that doesn't exist How can I resolve this problem and get back to pushing this repo? Here is my output log: ~\Documents\GitHub\mryamz.github.io [master ↑6 +0 ~1 -0 !]> git push Counting objects: 42, done.
