Stop git from bringing changes to master into my branch?
So the problem here is that MYBRANCH is set up to track origin/master, which means that when you do a git pull, origin/master will be merged into it. You can untrack it by doing git config --unset branch.MYBRANCH.merge. Assuming there is an origin/MYBRANCH, you can track it by doing git...
How to list remote branch without web request?

How do I move an unstaged file to untracked?
I want to remove files from the 'not staged' section, but still see it when I type git status. Where do you want them moved to? There really are no other places to hide. As you mentioned, these are tracked files, so you don't want to remove them from...
Advantages/disadvantages to branches and forks
git,github,git-branch,git-fork
There is not actually much difference; a branch in a different repository (the fork) is pretty much the same as a separate branch in the upstream repository. It’s just that they are a bit more separated. A few advantages for using a fork may be to have it more separated,...
Managing git repos
Yes, that's the common way to do it. They only get notified if they are on github or other collaboration platforms.You could easily just clone the repo, do your stuff and nobody will have knowledge of that. This depends on your changes. Merging back typically is done in a...

The first parameter, is the remote name, then you should write...
Write Access for user on all repos on Gitolite
myreponame.git doesn't exist on the server currently, but I'd like to be able to add it automatically just by using the remote add origin command. That is not how you add a new repo with gitolite. You need to modify your conf/gitolite.conf file of your gitolite-admin repo, in order...

Messed up a merge when trying to upgrade my Laravel application
When you did the git reset --soft HEAD~1, you "moved backwards" a commit, while keeping your working directory and index the same. So when you committed, the files were changed as if you had done the merge, without doing an actual merge; i.e., your commit had only one parent. I'm...
Cannot get my post-commit script to run (git)
For the remote repository you should use the post-recieve hook. I think the post-commit hook is only run on the clients, and not on the remote repository. From the docs post-receive This hook is invoked by git-receive-pack on the remote repository, which happens when a git push is done on...
How to pull files and only override conflicts
Doing a git pull should do the right thing, as long as you haven't done git add on the files you don't want in to have under git. I suggest putting the names of those files in a .gitignore. If you are running into a specific problem with using git...
ERROR while adding meta-oic layer to an Intel Edison image
You have a typo somewhere: 'nfs-utilsiotivity-resource-samples' should be 'nfs-utils iotivity-resource-samples'.

git: assume unchanged bit not set
While the actual behavior may have changed between versions, this is an implementation detail. Fundamentally, assume-unchanged is a mechanism to allow Git to avoid hitting the filesystem to look for changes. It means that Git may avoid looking at the files, it doesn't mean that Git must avoid looking at...
git - list of all changed but not deleted files in a commit
Try using this command: git show --diff-filter=AM --pretty="format:" --name-only #{commitId} It is what you mentioned in your original problem with a --diff-filter flag added to restrict to only files which were added (A) or modified (M). For a complete list of the types of files to which you can restrict,...
Can git ever send your code to a repo that isn't yours?
git,github,git-commit,git-add,git-init
Doing a git commit locally won't result in your code being sent to any repo, let alone a repo which is not yours. When you do a git commit, Git will add some local objects corresponding to the changes you have made in the current working branch. In order for...

How to push local git repo to remote branch?
You need to make sure that local repo branch name matches the remote branch name. When you create a new local repo the name of the branch is called master, and that probably already exists in the remote you are trying to push to. To rename your local branch see:...
What is the difference between stop tracking and discard file in git SourceTree
In SourceTree, selecting "discard" on a file just throws away your local changes; stop tracking removes it from the repository. However, as long as you have deleted the file on your local drive, and you can see that deletion in the "Staged Files" section of SourceTree, it will be deleted...
Associate git repo with existing fork network
GitHub support has removed fork relationships for me before, so I suspect they'd also be able to reattach you. To do it on your own, I'd: Make a new fork of the upstream repo Change your personal fork's origin to the new fork You'll lose GitHub history for your current...
gitignore in PHPStorm
Most likely, certain files inside those directories were already added to version control before the directories were added to .gitignore; note that the files listed as ignored in the command line and the ones being modified in the UI are not the same. You can remove them from source control...
Trying to understand git upstream branch
You are mixing up two different concepts of git here. The remote and the branch. Remote [default: origin] Think of the Remote as another computer or another person. Specifying something like origin will tell git who to send your current set of changes to. Branch [default: master] You use branches...
Stash Git error “fatal: remote error: CAPTCHA required”
The problem was a malformed URL: it should be https://[email protected]/scm/~username/project.git instead of [email protected]
Go back before commit and push changes
The push aside, reset is made for this. $ git reset HEAD^ will move your current local head (master, maybe?) one step up in history, while keeping your local files untouched. Then for the push (and you should listen to @jeremytwfortune in his comment), you can (but shouldn't) remove it...
Configure Git to use a .pem key from a specific location
From the git(1) man page: GIT_SSH If this environment variable is set then git fetch and git push will use this command instead of ssh when they need to connect to a remote system. The $GIT_SSH command will be given exactly two or four arguments: the [email protected] (or just host)...
Need help doing a git merge
Your changes would be lost if they pulled in new changes. Git is actively trying to prevent that, so it forces you to either blow away the changes or stash them for later. Stash the changes: git stash save Then your collaborator can pull the changes into their branch. If...

Why can I view some Unix executable files in Mac OS X and not others?
Executable files may be scripts (in which case you can read the text), or binaries (which are ELF formatted machine code). Your shell script is a script; git is an ELF binary. You can use the file command to see more detail. For example, on my nearest Linux system: $...
Hide sensitive information from git changes
What you probably are looking for is a filter. You set these up in your .gitattributes file to run one substitution upon adding a file to the staging area, and another substitution upon checkout: The image is from the .gitattributes section of the Git book, which has details on how...
“Arguments to path.resolve must be strings” when calling 'gitbook build' from a Git hook
node.js,git,gruntjs,githooks,gitbook
Some further consideration brought me to the right direction: Invoking a Git hook has a different login context than working on the server's command line. So running set > some-file in both contexts revealed significant differences in environment variables. Some experiments turned out that it was export HOME=/home/git that had...
Undoing a git commit on a folder that contains many other folders
All the git data is stored in a .git folder in your code directory. If you remove this folder, the newly created git repository is gone and you can create a new git repository in the subfolder project2.

External tools or websites such as git-cola or GitHub can interpret multiple lines commit messages as: The first line is a short description...
Is it possible to connect to remote DB while working in localhost?
Yes, of course it is. You'll need to whitelist your development servers on the remote server's firewall and allow remote access to the database. If you're using cPanel, there are options there to do so, but you may need to speak to your host as well.
Pull request within one project/branch?
Yes. You can create pull request for separate branches of the same repository. C just needs to make sure to push their changes on a separate branch then, so that they can create a pull request from it to the master branch of the project. But yeah, this is totally...

Why does git checkout modify the index without being documented as such?
From the man page you pasted in your question: The <tree-ish> argument can be used to specify a specific tree-ish (i.e. commit, tag or tree) to update the index for the given paths before updating the working tree. So you can see, it does clearly state that the index will...
Git submodule fail because of link to unexisting revision
That means A has recorded a gitlink (special entry in the index) referencing a SHA1 of the submodule B which was never pushed to GitHub. When A used B in a local clone, B was at 32a0a80. A was pushed, but B was not. Hence the issue. Normally, a git...

git add file to archive

Override .gitattributes text=auto in Windows
windows,git,gitattributes,core.autocrlf
.gitattributes overrides all config settings, so it really can't be overridden; it is the "overrider," so to speak. While you can simply remove the line, this will cause inconsistent behavior on other developers' machines if they have core.autocrlf=true. So the best bet would be to add the following line to...
Is there any way to checkout the previous commit without knowing the ID? [duplicate]
Yep, git provides two nice ways to do this: HEAD^ or HEAD~1 (HEAD is your current commit). The number of carets following HEAD or the number after the tilda determine how many commits back you are referring to. So for instance HEAD^^^ or HEAD~3 both refer to three commits back....

Is there a way to push to a remote Git repository without having to fetch its objects?
To the best of my knowledge there is no way to do what you want. When you try to push some commit to a remote repository Git will detect whether your current branch is behind its remote counterpart and it that case it will prompt an error: ! [rejected] master...

Git sees duplicated modified file
Look again carefully AreaChart.js and Areachart.js are different files. One has capital C and other has lower case c character. Since Git is case sensitive, and your filesystem is case insensitive, you will only see one of these on your filesystem. If you only want one in Git, you should...

How to get rid of .ignore file in Git?
.gitignore is just like any other file under version control, so yes, you can delete it. However, keep in mind that it probably has entries in it that should be kept, so instead of deleting it, I would just modify it so that your jar files are no longer ignored.
Add a file named “--” to a git repository

The binary attribute "macro" is a shorthand for -diff -merge -text (see gitattributes docs).

How to import bugfix of master in all other branches without including the commits before?
git,version-control,merge,git-branch
Merge instead of cherry-pick! cherry-pick makes a new commit on your branch, and that commit doesn't not refer to where the bugfix was originally created, hiding actual history.
