commit

I keep getting an error when I try to commit my project files using Xcode. File -> Source Control -> Commit "The operation could not be performed because no valid working copies were found." "Please verify that your files are under source control and try again." This is an existing project that is NOT under source control. How do I get my project files under source control, using Xcode? EDIT: Answered my own question. Step 1) Restart Xcode Step 2) Choose connect to repo Step 3) Enter repo address Step 4) Choose existing project folder you wish to place under version control Step 5) Voila! :)

I'm developing a ColdFusion website using Aptana. We're using SVN for version control. I renamed a few files and am now trying to commit one of them, but I'm getting the following error: 'SVN Commit' has encountered a problem. org.apache.subversion.javahl.ClientException: Illegal target for the requested operation svn: Commit failed (details follow): svn: Cannot commit 'R:\myPath\My-New-File-Name.cfm' because it was moved from 'R:\myPath\My-Old-File-Name.cfm' which is not part of the commit; both sides of the move must be committed together This seems to indicate that I need to commit both the

I'm not really familiar with how git works. I pushed a commit by mistake and want to revert it. I did a git reset --hard HEAD~1 Beware Fellow Googlers: This does not only revert the commit, but discards all file changes! and now the project is reverted on my machine, but not on github. If I try to push this code, I get the error 'Your branch is behind 'origin/master' by 1 commit, and can be fast-forwarded.' How do I remove this commit from github? You can do git push --force but be aware that you are rewriting history and anyone using the repo will have issue with this. If you want to prevent

I accidentally made 10 commits on branch "testing" when I intended to commit them on branch "master". The other commits on the "testing" branch are garbage, so I don't want to merge it with "master". Instead, I just want to replay the last 10 commits on master. git checkout master git whatchanged testing git cherry-pick _________ ? Rebase should do it. git rebase -p --onto master testing~10 testing This will copy the last ten commits on testing to master and make that the new testing (the old testing will be an orphan). Then you can merge master to testing as a fast-forward. git checkout

As Git user I regular come across the situation, that I need to rework one or more commits in a way which do not fit into --amend or rebase -i with fixup commits. Typically I would do something like git reset HEAD~1 # hack, fix, hack git commit -a # argh .. do I need to retype my message? I take sensible composed commit messages quite serious. They typically contain larger text with references & justifications for the change. Until now, I'm quite annoyed on the lengthy process to recover my old commit message via an unsorted git reflog , git log and copy & paste process. Is there a better to

There may be other references ahead of that time that you would need to remove if you don't want anything to point to the history you just

How to switch to specific Git commit without losing all the commits made after it ? I want that local files will be changed, but commits' database will remain intact, only the current position pointer is set to currently selected commit. I want to change files' state to specific commit, run project and, when finished, restore files back to last commit. How to do this without zipping the whole project's folder? Alexander Pavlov If you are at a certain branch mybranch , just go ahead and git checkout commit_hash . Then you can return to your branch by git checkout mybranch . I had the same game

How do I edit or reword a merge commit's message? git commit --amend works if it's the last commit made ( HEAD ), but what if it comes before HEAD ? git rebase -i HEAD~5 doesn't list the merge commits. If you add the --preserve-merges option (or its synonym, -p ) to the git rebase -i command then git will try to preserve the merges when rebasing, rather than linearizing the history, and you should be able to amend the merge commits as well: git rebase -i -p HEAD~5 Note that, starting git1.7.9.6 (and git1.7.10+), git merge itself will always trigger the editor , for you to add details to a

I am newbie in git and I am working on git. I added some files in git : git add <file1> git add <file2> then I wanted to push that for review, but mistakenly I did git commit so the files which I have changed don't go for reviews. Now if I enter the command : git status it says # On branch master # Your branch is ahead of 'origin/master' by 1 commit. # nothing to commit (working directory clean) I want to revert that commit and I want to push those files for review rather than commit. Can anyone let me know how I can do that? You cannot push anything that hasn't been committed yet. The order
