To: git
I'm really unclear here if it's me, the code, or the docs...
first, create the "remote"
% cg-admin-setuprepo remote.git
that works fine, now set up the "local"
% mkdir local.git
% cd local-git
% cg-init -m "junk message why should I have to do this one, it's dumb"
Now here's where I'm unclear. I need to "push" this into the remote,
so I try this:
% cg-branch-add origin "$(cd ..; pwd)/remote.git#master"
% cg-branch-ls
This seems to report the right thing. I have a branch "origin"
that points at the remote repository. So far, I think I'm understanding
what's happening. But now, go boom:
% cg-push
cg-push: where to push to?
Huh? How do I do the initial push? Not this way? Is it me, docs, or
code that is broken here?
UPDATE...
aha... "cg-push origin" works. But "cg-push" is documented to
default to "origin". Why doesn't it?
And then, another "go-boom" problem:
% cg-fetch
Hard links don't work - using copy
Fetching head...
cp: illegal option -- d
usage: cp [-R [-H | -L | -P]] [-f | -i | -n] [-pv] src target
cp [-R [-H | -L | -P]] [-f | -i | -n] [-pv] src1 ... srcN directory
cg-fetch: unable to get the head pointer of branch master
Any chance you could make this more POSIX-like? I know you have a big
warning in README.osx, but are you *really* needing all those weird
GNU-isms? Maybe you could fall back to using rsync to copy exactly
what you need?

I think this was resolved some weeks ago. Perhaps you could try the
latest cogito from git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/cogito/cogito.git ?

There aren't that many. This particular one was a typo, iirc.
As for rsync; From the output you posted above, you were setting up both
the repositories on your local machine. Using rsync for those cases
would be pretty stupid.
On a side-note, could you please turn off your spamvertising auto-reply?
It sends me some info about your perl-expertise and contact-numbers
every now and then. It's getting a bit annoying.

rsync instead of cp if you really need "-d".

If you email me directly, you'll get that note no more than once per
month. Some day, I'll create a system to whitelist people that never
want to see it again. Damn TUIT shortage. :)

You're right. It was the '-b' option that was removed earlier (which you
reported as well, ten days ago).

There are other problems with rsync. It would actually be faster to use
the git-daemon on localhost than using rsync for operations between two
local repositories.

It's not the amount of mail that annoys me. It's the principle of the
thing. Perhaps you can use a different email when participating in list
discussions? It's not exactly right to ask others to tell you they don't
want your spam after all.

Hmm, right. I changed the -d to -P, which is basically equivalent for
our situation, and -P is supposed to be POSIX. Thanks.

If you don't want to receive mailing list traffic related to your mails
directly, you can setup your mailer to adjust the 'mail-followup-to'
header appropriately and you should stop getting it twice.

The code was broken, cg-push wouldn't default to origin unless you
already had an origin head, which you obviously can't have when you are
going to push for the first time. Thanks, fixed.
