When i try to clone following from repository: git clone git://gitorious.org/qt/qt5.git qt5 i'm getting this error: fatal: Unable to look up gitorious.org (port 9418) (This is usually a temporary error during hostname resolution and means that the local server did not receive a response from an authoritative server. ) What's the problem? another thing that my network use proxy and i have already set it: git config --global http.proxy http://192.168.0.7:8080 VonC Try first with an https address, rather than the git one (which needs a special port) https://git.gitorious.org/qt/qt5.git The

I read in the answers to this question that git fetch origin should fetch all branches of origin. In my case, it doesn't seem to give me any branches, though. Here's what I did: Initially, a remote called origin had 7 branches. I cloned it. git branch then returned only master . I did git fetch origin , and git branch still only shows master . How can I get the other 6 branches without fetching them individually? You have all 7 branches, but git branch only shows local branches. Even though you now have the branch data locally on your system, they are still considered "remote branches". You

I'm developing my own brain imaging toolbox that runs under MATLAB & SPM8, and at the same time I have a git clone 'd version of my own toolbox code directory (local git repository) for running analyses, this setup is created according to Kevin Reid's answer on How to work simultaneously on several different versions of files with git? , which solved a part of the problem (how to have different versions of same .m file accessible at the same time, and still synchronizable by using git fetch or git pull ). However, my MATLAB install is in neither of these git directories; it's installed

I'm trying to figure out the proper way to clone a 3rd party library (engage.iphone from Janrain) into my own app's directory structure in a way that will let me pull the latest changes and merge them with any changes that I make locally. I also want the 3rd party library (merged with my changes) to be included in the git repo for my own app when I push it. Structure would be something like this: myApp/ <- this is my app, which is its own git repo external/ engage.iphone/ <- this is the 3rd party library I want to keep up-to-date mySource1.h mySource2.m ... How can I set it up this way safely?
