commit

If I check out a tagged version of my source code without creating a branch, Git indicates that I'm not associated with any branch at all. It's happy to let me make changes and check them in though. Where do those changes go? If I switch back to 'master' they disappear (overwritten by what was in master) and I can't seem to find them again. What gives? If Git lets me commit changes against what's essentially an anonymous branch, surely I can get them back? Paul Because your commit isn't on any branch , you can't see it in the working directory unless you checkout that specific commit, using

This will be my first git use. I have added new files ( a lot ) to the folder/project ( git local repository). I went through online tutorials and forums and see i can do git commit -a So i go to the base folder of the repository and do a sudo git commit -a But then, some screens comes up and asks me to add a comment which i do. i do not know how to proceed or exit. I do not want to mess up so i did ctrl + Z and did not do anything. Can you guys please outline the commands i need to use? git commit -a and git push? To add all the changes you've made: git add . To commit them: git commit -m "MY

I need to fire 2 queries. currently I'm doing it like this: // Begin Transaction $this->db->beginTransaction(); // Fire Queries if($query_one->execute()){ if($query_two->execute()){ // Commit only when both queries executed successfully $this->db->commit(); }else{ $this->db->rollback(); } }else{ $this->db->rollback(); } Is this the correct approach? I'm not using any try..catch in my code will it make my code inappropriate or vulnerable for any situation? vhu Yes, your approach is correct. Using Try...catch may lead into cleaner and more readable code in some cases but your overall approach is

In merging a branch, a conflict may happen which we should resolve to complete the merge. How can we list ONLY the stats of resolved conflicts in merge? TL;DR answer: Just try. Branches have a zero cost in git so just create a couple of test_merge_source and test_merge_destination branches and start the merge. After 5-10 minutes you are either done or you still have a little/some/much left because a few/some/many conflicts occurred and you can choose to finish/discard the merge attempt. I am sorry to provide you with a negative answer, but the premise for your question is fundamentally flawed

For the project I'm working on, I need to save all the files of a specific version of a git repository. I've looked through a fair amount of information regarding git checkout but I can't figure out what that does to the files in the directory I have, let alone save the version of that specific commit. Does anyone know a way to get the files of a git repository at a specific commit? Thanks. KingCrunch Do a "git export" (like "svn export")? git checkout [commit sha] git archive --format zip --output /full/path/to/zipfile.zip master However, I don't know, why. Usually one use a vcs exactly
