Here's my problem. I have a server (SERVER) with a repo on it. It has all my code and documentation. I pulled that repo onto my workstation for a local copy so I could work at home or wherever with needing server access. My problem is I can /pull/ from the repo on SERVER, but I can't /push/ any local changes back to the server. I get an error message about master being checked out. I know a little about bare repos, but my understanding is that the bare repo doesn't actually have the actual files in it, just the changes, which is not what I want. I would like to have the copy on SERVER to work from if I want, and also be able to pull/push changes from my local copy as well. That way I have 2 copies of the data handy (not to mention the disc backups. I'm fairly sure this can be setup, but I just don't know enough to figure it out. Can someone point me in the right direction? -- Mark Haney Software Developer/Consultant AB Emblem markh@abemblem.com Linux marius.homelinux 3.3.1-5.fc16.x86_64 GNU/Linux
