Subject: how do I create a branch and push it so several developers can share work?
Date: Wed, 8 Sep 2010 18:31:30 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <AANLkTinO9TVyg6EBS1ZuQPS+VWxzODmLan0sDGzFw8eh@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
We just switched over to git and also use gitolite.
To create a new branch and push it so a team of developers can
collaborate on that branch I performed the following commands:
Listed available tags:
git fetch --tags
Listed available branches, which for me only showed one, master:
git branch
Created the branch off the tag:
git branch fullers tagduvel
Checked out the branch to verify the contents:
git checkout fullers
...
Push the branch to the remote repository:
git push origin fullers
Now, when I clone the repository and list the branches I only see
'master'. If I list the branches with the -a option I see something I
did not anticipate:
git branch -a
* master
remotes/origin/HEAD -> origin/master
remotes/origin/duvel
remotes/origin/fullers
remotes/origin/master
What I had expected was a fullers branch.
So apparently I did something very wrong here. What did I do wrong?
Thanks,
Bob
