I've read through countless tutorials and I keep coming up short. Here's what I've got:
Here's what I'm doing:
mkdir project
git init
git add .
git commit #==> nothing to commit
#==> failed to push some refs to...
What steps am I missing?
This question is related to
git
version-control
@Josh Lindsey already answered perfectly fine. But I want to add some information since I often use ssh.
Therefore just change:
git remote add origin [email protected]:/path/to/my_project.git
to:
git remote add origin ssh://[email protected]/path/to/my_project
Note that the colon between domain and path isn't there anymore.
You can try this:
on Server:
adding new group to /etc/group
like
(example)
mygroup:1001:michael,nir
create new git repository:
mkdir /srv/git
cd /srv/git
mkdir project_dir
cd project_dir
git --bare init (initial git repository )
chgrp -R mygroup objects/ refs/ (change owner of directory )
chmod -R g+w objects/ refs/ (give permission write)
on Client:
mkdir my_project
cd my_project
touch .gitignore
git init
git add .
git commit -m "Initial commit"
git remote add origin [email protected]:/path/to/my_project.git
git push origin master
(Thanks Josh Lindsey for client side)
after Client, do on Server this commands:
cd /srv/git/project_dir
chmod -R g+w objects/ refs/
If got this error after git pull:
There is no tracking information for the current branch. Please specify which branch you want to merge with. See git-pull(1) for details
git pull <remote> <branch>
If you wish to set tracking information for this branch you can do so with:
git branch --set-upstream new origin/<branch>
try:
git push -u origin master
It will help.
You have to add at least one file to the repository before committing, e.g. .gitignore
.
You need to set up the remote repository on your client:
git remote add origin ssh://myserver.com/path/to/project
If your project doesn't have an upstream branch, that is if this is the very first time the remote repository is going to know about the branch created in your local repository the following command should work.
git push --set-upstream origin <branch-name>
I am aware there are existing answers which solves the problem. For those who are new to git, As of 02/11/2021, The default branch in git is "main"
not "master"
branch, The command will be
git push -u origin main
