Working on branches
Create a remote branch
git clone git+ssh://dev.laptop.org/git/sugar cd sugar git branch update-1 git push origin update-1
Work on a remote branch
git clone git+ssh://dev.laptop.org/git/sugar git checkout --track -b update-1 origin/update-1 git pull
You can now use commit, push and pull as usual.
Apply changes from master
git-cherry-pick <commit-id> git push
Reverting changes
When you mess up a file and want it back to what it was, cd into the directory and:
git checkout HEAD -- gridwidget.py
To remove uncommitted changes and reset the project to HEAD:
get reset --hard HEAD
When you want an activity that sugar-jhbuild does not bring down
Read only:
git-clone git://dev.laptop.org/projects/tamtam
If you have commit access:
git-clone git+ssh://dev.laptop.org/git/projects/tamtam
