I suspect you missed the webhook url.
Besides checking the Build when a change is pushed to GitHub option, you should also add the webhook url into your Github repository to get the Auto trigger mechanism to work and here is how:
Go to your Github repository:
Settings--> Webhooks&Services-->Service--> Add Services--> Choose "Jenkins (GitHub plugin)"
Then fill in the Jenkins hook url with your jenkins url like this:
http://your_jenkins_url/github-webhook/
And, VERY IMPORTANT, since you are installing your jenkins server in your localhost, please be aware that you shouldn't fill in above Jenkins hook url like http://localhost:8080/github-webhook/ because Github is not able to recognize localhost or 127.0.0.1 or 192.168.*.*.
Either you should use an externally accessible DNS name or an IP address, which can be recognized by Github.

Jenkins is running on localhost.
I have my repository in GitHub. I have the option to 'Build when a change is pushed to GitHub' checked.
When I click 'Build Now', build is done successfully, no issues there. But when am committing code to my repository, auto build is not happening. I can access GitHub from my system as the repository is public and I believe even Jenkins should be able to detect it. I know there is a polling option but I want Jenkins to build when change is detected in repository(as this is what we have been trying to achieve).
Configuration:
Jenkins 1.615
Git Plugin 2.3.5
Git Client Plugin 1.17.1
————————————————————————————————————————————
EDIT: "Build when a change is pushed to GitHub" option has been renamed to "GitHub hook trigger for GITScm polling" in most recent version of GitHub plugin.
(thanks to @smrubin's feedback.)

I'd need more info to fully understand the current situation, such as the current size of the repo, how many times you've pushed, how many other colloborators are working in the same repo, but here are several possible courses of action:
If you don't have any collaborators (you are the only user), it's quite possible that you have a full copy of the repo locally. Are all the files intact locally?
Wait until next month, when you get another 1 Gb+ of free bandwidth, download the repo first thing, then change your settings.
It may be possible to download the latest commit as a zip file directly on the Github website if only command line access has been limited, not sure if this option is available with LFS.
Pay to get it unlocked
Check the options to see if Git-LFS can be disabled remotely (I don't think this is possible)
Once you can get the full repo cloned locally, you can turn off Git-LFS, make a commit, and either push back up to the current repo, or push up to a new repo (either at Github or a different hosting site). I'm not 100% sure if disabling Git-LFS in the config locally will also disable it fully on Github for the remote repo.
|
H!
I installed LFS in my github repository to track my *.csv files but when someone else tried to upload other csv and I wanted to make the pull of my repository this was the result
This repository is over its data quota. Account responsible for
LFS bandwidth should purchase more data packs to restore access.
My question is How can I recover the access to my repository, it doesn´t matter if I can not use anymore LFS I will move my csv files to other place, I just want to recover the access to my github repository and being able to push and pull.

Here's how you construct the URL:

I can't seem to find out how to get the URL of a test workflow anywhere in the docs. I have a simple job which runs tests and on fail it needs to post the URL of the failed job to another web service.
I was expecting this to be in the default env vars but apparently not.

Since you have already made 5 commits since the commit containing the clear text password, you best bet is to do a git rebase -i in interactive mode on your local branch. Find the SHA-1 of the commit where you added the clear text password, and type the following:
git rebase --interactive dba507c^
where dba507c are the first 7 characters of the SHA-1 for the bad commit.
Change this:
pick dba507c comment for commit containing clear text password
To this:
edit dba507c I have removed the clear text password
Make the change to the password file to remove the clear text, then commit your result like this:
git commit --all --amend --no-edit
git rebase --continue
Finish the rebase, then push your (correct) local branch to the remote via:
git push -f origin your_branch
You will need to force push your_branch because you have rewritten history (by modifying the password file). Now you have all your latest commits, but you have removed the clear text.
|
I pushed a file containing a password to my repo by mistake - FYI the repo is just a small personal project.
Once I realised the password was present I added the file to .gitignore and executed git rm -r --cached <filename>, committed and pushed to the repo.
I now realise the password is still present in the history - what is the best way to remove it?
I read the Remove sensitive data page on Github which suggests changing the password - which I have done - but I would like to remove the history as well.

How do I properly remove sensitive data pushed to a Git repo?

There needs to be at least one push to trigger a page build so by doing a git push origin master, I got the page to rebuild.

The GitHub blog post about 2-Factor Authentication mentions that you can generate a "personal access token", that can be used in place of a password when 2-Factor Auth is enabled:
I'm not sure if it will actually work with TortoiseGit, but maybe you can give it a try? You can generate an access token at the Authorized applications settings page:

This is a relative solution, because the limit is still 5000 API calls per hour,
or ~80 calls per minute, which is really not that much.
I am writing a tool to compare over 350 repositories in an organization and
to find their correlations.
Ok, the tool uses python for git/github access, but I think
that is not the relevant point, here.
After some initial success, I found out that the capabilities of the GitHub API
are too limited in # of calls and also in bandwidth, if you really want to ask
the repos a lot of deep questions.
Therefore, I switched the concept, using a different approach:
Instead of doing everything with the GitHub API, I wrote a GitHub Mirror script
that is able to mirror all of those repos in less than 15 minutes using my
parallel python script via pygit2.
Then, I wrote everything possible using the local repositories and pygit2.
This solution became faster by a factor of 100 or more, because there was neither an API nor a bandwidth bottle neck.
Of course, this did cost extra effort, because the pygit2 API is quite a bit
different from github3.py that I preferred for the GitHub solution part.
And that is actually my conclusion/advice:
The most efficient way to work with lots of Git data is:
clone all repos you are interested in, locally
write everything possible using pygit2, locally
write other things, like public/private info, pull requests, access to
wiki pages, issues etc. using the github3.py API or what you prefer.
This way, you can maximize your throughput, while your limitation is now the
quality of your program. (also non-trivial)

You really need to answer a basic question first. Do you want to use Mercurial or Git. I had to make this decision earlier this year. Mercurial was by far easier to setup and start using. I ultimately chose Git for the following reasons:
Most OpenSource Projects are moving from SVN to Git
Git allowed the most flexibility in whatever I wanted to do. (This is the main reason)
Third-party integration
If your business might need complicated version control processes go with Git. The learning curve is steep but it will be easier to do what you really want at the end of the day. I will qualify what I mean by 'steep'. The difference between teaching someone Mercurial vs. Git, is trying to get a Windows user to learn Linux command lines.
If you want a quick easy to use DVCS in which you think simple branching and versioning is all you will ever need, don't kill yourself with Git, use Mercurial. But keep in mind most people you talk to in Mailing lists, IRC, etc. will have experience with Git not Mercurial.
If you plan on paying for GitHub or BitBucket, I suggest you also look at Kiln. FogCreek has made mercurial even easier.

Disclaimer: This is a subjective question. Please follow relevant guidelines.
I am considering the migration of source code from a traditional VCS to a DVCS. Since having a decent GUI web-based frontend and workflow tools are a must, the two obvious candidates are Bitbucket and Github.
Unfortunately I have no in-depth experience with either of them, so I'd really like to have a few second opinions before taking the dive. Especially welcome would be observations from a team/business perspective regarding day-to-day usage and features that have an impact on productivity.
What is Your experience with either of them? Any particular highlights or annoyances?

You can search multiple repositories by adding the repo: option to your query, which you can see in action on GitHub's advanced search page. Each repo value takes the usual user/repository form. For example:
find_me repo:me/foo repo:you/bar repo:company/baz
To make a list of all your repositories if you don't have one, an easy way might be GitHub's repositories API.
Once you have the list, it would also be simple to clone everything with a simple shell script. I don't believe GitHub has a built-in feature for that.
while read repo; do
git clone https://github.com/$repo
done < list_of_repos.txt
Since it sounds like you're pulling an organization's repos, caniszczyk has a Gist doing just that. I'll copy the core of it here, but there's some discussion with updates and help for private repos.
curl -s https://api.github.com/orgs/twitter/repos?per_page=200 | \
ruby -rubygems -e 'require "json"; JSON.load(STDIN.read).each { |repo| %x[git clone #{repo["ssh_url"]} ]}'
There's also another SO question asking about it, and a full backup script to get issues, wikis, etc.

I Want to search all our codebase in our Github installation for different text strings. We have app. 90 different repositories.
Is there such a method?
I can only find search for file names, authors etc., not search for strings inside code. My task is to find every project which uses or refers to systems, classes, methods etc. that soon are obsolete.
Alternately: Is there a method to download/clone all repositories in one action?
We use SourceTree as client software.

Gist is a simple way to share snippets and pastes with others.
Whereas Repo is simply a place where the history of your work is stored.
There is no good answer, it's personal preference. I make mine a conceptual distinction. If it's code designed to demonstrate a technique, teach a principle, or show off a solution it goes in a gist. Doesn't matter if it's one file or 30 files. If it's actual code intended to be run, used as is, or forked as boilerplate I put it in a proper repository.

I'm publishing a tutorial that includes a lot of code interspersed with documentation. I'm considering two ways of hosting the code:
Separate git repository with code files and markdown files explaining the code
Github gist containing both of these
Are there advantages of hosting in a gist v/s a repository? When would one prefer one of these over the other?

Despite the misleading/broken github interface there's actually a way to get what you want. You need to drop one .
Instead of:
https://github.com/account/repo/compare/ath/branchA...branchB
do
https://github.com/account/repo/compare/ath/branchA..branchB
This compares branch heads instead of simply using the base branch to find the merge base.
github's reponse is what clued me in from @edwin-evans' response:
This is a result of the type of diff we use on GitHub. We use git’s three dot diff, which is the difference between the latest commit on the HEAD branch and the last common ancestor commit with the base branch.

Based on below official doc 1. Create new branch x from base branch 2. Merge your branch into branch x 3. Check the pull request diff between base branch and x branch, the diff show work as expected docs.github.com/en/pull-requests/…

But why Github chooses three dots instead of two dots? When merged, two dots diff is the effective one, isn't it?
– Roeniss
Mar 30, 2023 at 12:41
Never mind. I found the reason : "Since the three-dot comparison compares with the merge base, it is focusing on 'what a pull request introduces'. When you use a two-dot comparison, the diff changes when the base branch is updated, even if you haven't made any changes to the topic branch."

I am having two branches:
- master and
- develop.
I am trying to merge branch develop into master branch.
I have checked with Tower and Araxis merge, those two branches are identical. But when I do a pull request on Github, I am seeing that there are 381 files changed, like files are not on master at all.
Any ideas why this behavior?
Update: I am attaching screenshot of pull request.

GitHub's website currently seems to be:
Using blob for files, and tree for directories, in URLs;
Redirecting browsers which request file URLs containing tree to contain blob instead; and
Redirecting browsers which request directory URLs containing blob to URLs containing tree instead.
It's possible that GitHub's website, at the time you asked the question, was only rewriting file URLs between tree and blob, instead of properly redirecting them. (Rewriting and redirecting URLs are activities of web servers.) If so, then the change wouldn't appear in your browser's address bar. But maybe you didn't mean that.

I keep noticing this whenever I'm trying to add links to github files. You can add a link using blob:
https://github.com/facebook/pop/blob/master/Podfile
And the same doc comes up if you change blob to tree:
https://github.com/facebook/pop/tree/master/Podfile
What is the difference? Whenever I want to add a link for posterity in a doc, which one should I prefer?

Can I use the github /compare to display the difference between two different source files in HEAD?
Here is how I do it on the command line with git diff:
git diff HEAD:docs/tutorial/01-boxed-function-pointers.cpp HEAD:docs/tutorial/02-raw-actors.cpp
My best guess at the github syntax is the following. But it doesn't work:
https://github.com/RossBencina/Fractorp/compare/HEAD:docs/tutorial/01-boxed-function-pointers.cpp...HEAD:docs/tutorial/02-raw-actors.cpp
I specifically want an on-line pretty-printed HTML render of the diff.
If this can't be done with github, can anyone recommend a third-party website that will render diffs of two arbitrary files hosted on github?
Edit #1:
Thanks to the answers who recommended https://www.diffchecker.com. However, I need to be able to specify the source files as current HEAD on github. Any third-party tool would need to automatically pull the latest source files from github repo URLs. I notice that http://www.mergely.com can import source from URLs. However I am looking for a live view that always uses the latest HEAD.
Thank you.

Yes you can, but that is not recommended at all.

But there are so many drawbacks in this way.

I'm new to GitHub and I found this site very useful for a lot of us. I came upon storing my Laravel project here in GitHub, but there's a problem every time I will clone it to be able to go to production, when I'm about to clone it at first, it always shows this error.

You can't push into other people's repositories. This is because push permanently gets code into their repository, which is not cool.
What you should do, is to ask them to pull from your repository. This is done in GitHub by going to the other repository and sending a "pull request".
There is a very informative article on the GitHub's help itself: https://help.github.com/articles/using-pull-requests
To interact with your own repository, you have the following commands. I suggest you start reading on Git a bit more for these instructions (lots of materials online).
To add new files to the repository or add changed files to staged area:
$ git add <files>
To commit them:
$ git commit
To commit unstaged but changed files:
$ git commit -a
To push to a repository (say origin):
$ git push origin
To push only one of your branches (say master):
$ git push origin master
To fetch the contents of another repository (say origin):
$ git fetch origin
To fetch only one of the branches (say master):
$ git commit
0
To merge a branch with the current branch (say $ git commit
1):
$ git commit
2
Note that $ git commit
3 is the name of the branch you fetched in the previous step from $ git commit
4. Therefore, updating your master branch from origin is done by:
$ git commit
5
You can read about all of these commands in their manual pages (either on your linux or online), or follow the GitHub helps:
https://help.github.com/articles/create-a-repo for commit and push
https://help.github.com/articles/fork-a-repo for fetch and merge

I think you are talking about your organisation's private repo, right? As I didn't find this checkbox for personal private repositories.
If so, then you need to:
go to your organisation's settings, Member privileges, and check "Allow forking of private repositories" .
go to your repo and you'll see "Allow forking" will be automatically checked after doing step 1,
.
The process is also described here:

I have a private repo. I noticed I cannot fork it. I cannot find any information that says I shouldn't be able to. When I go to Options the ability to fix this is disabled. I am guessing you need to pay or something which is fine, but it doesn't say that anywhere...
Cannot click!

Here's a basic web.py example for receiving data via POST and doing something with it (in this case, just printing it to stdout):
import web
urls = ('/.*', 'hooks')
app = web.application(urls, globals())
class hooks:
def POST(self):
data = web.data()
print
print 'DATA RECEIVED:'
print data
print
return 'OK'
if __name__ == '__main__':
app.run()
I POSTed some data to it using hurl.it (after forwarding 8080 on my router), and saw the following output:
$ python hooks.py
http://0.0.0.0:8080/
DATA RECEIVED:
test=thisisatest&test2=25
50.19.170.198:33407 - - [27/Jan/2013 10:18:37] "HTTP/1.1 POST /hooks" - 200 OK
You should be able to swap out the print statements for your JSON processing.
To specify the port number, call the script with an extra argument:
$ python hooks.py 1234
|
Github offers to send Post-receive hooks to an URL of your choice when there's activity on your repo.
I want to write a small Python command-line/background (i.e. no GUI or webapp) application running on my computer (later on a NAS), which continually listens for those incoming POST requests, and once a POST is received from Github, it processes the JSON information contained within. Processing the json as soon as I have it is no problem.
The POST can come from a small number of IPs given by github; I plan/hope to specify a port on my computer where it should get sent.
The problem is, I don't know enough about web technologies to deal with the vast number of options you find when searching.. do I use Django, Requests, sockets,Flask, microframeworks...? I don't know what most of the terms involved mean, and most sound like they offer too much/are too big to solve my problem - I'm simply overwhelmed and don't know where to start.
Most tutorials about POST/GET I could find seem to be concerned with either sending or directly requesting data from a website, but not with continually listening for it.
I feel the problem is not really a difficult one, and will boil down to a couple of lines, once I know where to go/how to do it. Can anybody offer pointers/tutorials/examples/sample code?

How do I receive Github Webhooks in Python

Depending on where they are located:
rm github_rsa.pub
and
rm id_rsa.pub
If they are in the default location then you can do
rm ~/.ssh/github_rsa.pub
and
rm ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
However this is likely answered already elsewhere.

To solve the problem, I removed the file from git, then re-added it by doing the following:
git rm "myPathToAFile"
git add .
git commit -am 'my commit'
Hope this helps someone else!
|
I ran into this error, and found very little documentation on how to fix it online. I got the error by trying to run the command git add ., and received this response:
fatal: unable to stat 'myPathToAFile': No such file or directory

I have a perfectly valid repository which doesn't display correctly on GitHub. How do I report this to GitHub to get them to fix it?
This also affects the git command line tool, unfortunately.
If you want to know what's going on, look at the 'encoding' attribute of the commit.

The docs for updating a file specify that you will need to provide the SHA for the file you will be replacing. The easiest way would be to query github for that, too. For example:
> curl https://api.github.com/repos/testacc01/testrepo01/contents/test.txt
{
"name": "test.txt",
"path": "test.txt",
"sha": "4f8a0fd8ab3537b85a64dcffa1487f4196164d78",
"size": 13,
…
So, you can see what the SHA is in the "sha" field of the JSON response. Use that when you formulate your request to update the file with a new version. After you have successfully updated the file, the file will have a new SHA that you will need to request before it can be updated again. (Unless, I guess, your next update goes on a different branch.)
|
I'm using this API to update a file on my repo, it requires me to have a valid SHA blob for a file that I want to update:
http://developer.github.com/v3/repos/contents/
How do I find the SHA blob for the specific file? Supposed in my testrepo in the test account here, what is the SHA blob for the test.txt file?
https://github.com/testacc01/testrepo01
Thank you so much!

How to find a Github file 's SHA blob

Pulling in a single commit would be a cherry-pick and would rewrite the commit ID (and mark you as the committer while retaining the author). The process is pretty straightforward, though:
git fetch git://github.com/user/project.git
git cherry-pick <SHA-COMMIT-ID>
You get the SHA from the repository log, for example:
git log --oneline
b019cc0 Check whether we have <linux/compiler.h>.
0920898 Include <linux/compiler.h> before including <linux/usbdevice_fs.h>.
cbf0ba1 Add DLT_DBUS, for raw D-Bus messages.
77ed5cd Libnl 2.x returns its own error codes, not errnos; handle that.
With git cherry-pick 0920898 you bring the respective commit to your current branch.

Someone forked a Github project of mine and made some changes. How can I merge the changes back in to my upstream version?
Also, is it possible to pull in just a specific commit?
What I'm looking is if there is a way to pull a specific commit instead of the entire branch.
|
Pull in changes from a Github fork
|
If my memory serves me correctly, then if you force push or update the branch in question in any way, GitHub will automatically update the pull request. If doing the force push would result in the pull request not being possible, then GitHub will tell you this.
You do not need to worry about updating the pull request as GitHub will take care of this for you.
This being said, doing a git push --force on any remote branch can cause mayhem for your coworkers who are also currently working on this branch. So you are correct to be shying away from doing a force push, but fortunately a GitHub pull request is not your biggest problem.
|
I am working on a git branch that is currently part of a closed pull request on github. Subsequently to the initial pull request, I made some additional commits, pushed those commits to github, and then reverted those commits and recommitted them because I need to revise the commits.
Now if I want to push those commits to github, I'll need to issue a force push: git push --force. But I have the strong feeling that this might cause mayhem with the existing pull request, even though the changed commits occurred after the commits that existed prior to me making the pull request.
Can anyone describe to me how best to handle this situation? I think I may need to just create an entirely new branch and then issue a pull request on that branch instead. But if there's a way to link this to the existing pull request that would be preferable.
|
What happens if you force push to a branch with an existing pull request?
|
It's a bit weird, but if you use git pull [remote] <refspec> it actually doesn't update the remote refs. It sort of makes sense if you think about it a certain way: since you're specifying a specific ref to fetch, it doesn't have to look up anything about your remote branches, so it doesn't inherently know what remote branch it should update. It of course could figure it out, and I wouldn't be surprised if it gets fixed eventually, but that's the existing behavior. (There may be messages on the mailing list about it - I don't know.)
You can easily work around it, though. If you use git pull origin/master, since you're specifying what to fetch via a remote branch, it should update that remote branch. And if you're on your master branch anyway (or any other branch tracking origin/master), you can just do git pull and let it fill in the defaults, and it will update remote branches.
This is documented in the git-pull man page, most concisely under EXAMPLES but also elsewhere. The relevant part:
Merge into the current branch the remote branch next:
$ git pull origin next
This leaves a copy of next temporarily in FETCH_HEAD, but does not update any remote-tracking branches. Using remote-tracking branches, the same can be done by invoking fetch and merge:
$ git fetch origin
$ git merge origin/next
|
According to the documentation, git pull performs a git fetch then a git merge, however in that case performing git pull origin master should perform a git fetch origin master right? However, it does not appear to be doing so. Here is an example.
Supposed my remote origin master (on GitHub in my case) has the following history:
commit 1111111 : my first commit
commit 2222222 : a commit from someone else
and I only have my first commit locally as doing following shows
git checkout master
git log --pretty=format:'%h' -n 1
1111111
git checkout origin/master
git log --pretty=format:'%h' -n 1
1111111
From here I do my pull and look at the results as follows:
git checkout master
git pull origin master
git log --pretty=format:'%h' -n 1
2222222
git checkout origin/master
git log --pretty=format:'%h' -n 1
1111111
As can be seen, the pull did in fact update my master branch with the new commit(s) from the remote origin, but my local origin/master is still where it was. Forcing me to do the following
git fetch origin master
git checkout origin/master
git log --pretty=format:'%h' -n 1
2222222
Is this correct behavior for git pull or might I have something miss configured? I looked through the git pull man page and didn't see anything that suggested this but I may have missed it.

git pull origin master does not update origin/master?

First, one obtains a list of commits (as with git rev-list), and parents of each commit. A "column reservation list" is kept in memory.
For each commit then:
If the commit has no column reserved for it, assign it to a free column. This is how the branch heads will start.
Print the tree graphics according to the column reservation list, and then the commit message
The reservation's list entry for the current column/commit is updated with the first parent of the current commit, such that the parent is going to be printed in the same column.
Other parents get a new free column.
If this was a merge, the next line will try to link the second parent to a column where the commit is expected (this makes for the loops and the "≡ bridge")
Example showing output of git-forest on aufs2-util with an extra commit to have more than one branch).
With lookahead, one can anticipate how far down the merge point will be and squeeze the wood between two columns to give a more aesthetically pleasing result.

I know that the history in Git is stored in a data structure called a DAG. I've heard about DFS and know it's somewhat related.
I'm curious, how do programs such as git log --graph or hg graphlog draw the history? I always thought it's quite complicated to draw the lanes and everything in such a nice way.
Could someone write some pseudo code that demonstrates it?
note: I tried looking around Git or hg's code but it's very hard to follow and get a general idea of what's going on.
|
How does 'git log --graph' or 'hg graphlog' work?

The 'File name too long' is indeed an error coming from your system. It is not a restriction in Git. I don't think there's a way of testing the maximum branch name lengths of other systems, like GitHub's, without experimenting - although I don't see why you would want to know...
.
Source: the error mentioned is thrown on line 291 of branch.c. "File name too long" is the standard description for the ENAMETOOLONG error.
|
I want to understand what is maximum allowed size of a git branch name.
I am trying to create some long names (as an experiment) so a name with 370 characters was valid, but 380 characters gave me fatal: Failed to lock ref for update: File name too long
So the questions are: what is the maximum number of characters that can be in git branch name? Does it depend on the system? Is it possible to create long branch name in a repository that will be rejected on remote repository (i.e. Github)?

One way to inspect the build (not to debug, sorry) is to send the build logs to another server on failure.
Here is an example:
after_failure
- sudo tar -czf /tmp/build-${TRAVIS_BUILD_NUMBER}-logs.tgz your-application-logs/
- scp /tmp/build-${TRAVIS_BUILD_NUMBER}-logs.tgz [email protected]:~/logs
You could send them via email, store them on a storage server or whatever.
These logs would be useful to you if you run your tests in a debug mode and include our own logs as well in the tarball.

I already check the logs on Travis, this is how I debug builds remotely, but fixing builds involves commiting blindly for intricate errors, and waiting for Travis servers. This is not ideal for complex build chains, hence my question about local debugging possibilities.

So you're left with reducing the problem instead of finding a solution. Try to minimize the build time and build steps (you could divide the project into separate repos with separate Travis builds). Try to have a dev environment very similar to that on Travis.
– Harry Dobrev
Feb 14, 2014 at 14:27
This is why having virtual machines with Travis systems is a nice way to debug builds locally. This was possible, but not anymore, unless you are ready to replicate the exact system on another VM (e.g. Virtualbox).

One used to be able to download Vagrant boxes to debug Travis builds (for GitHub projects for instance). Apparently, this is no longer possible, so how do people currently debug complex Travis build chains locally?

What is the current workflow to debug Travis builds locally?

According to your logs, this seems to be due to case sensitivity: you show the repository to contain src/WebClient (camel cased!), but then you try to cd src/webclient (lowercase).
On macOS, this would work because the filesystem is by default case insensitive; not sure why it works on your Ubuntu system, unless you use something like tab completion, which does the casing for you.
To check what you have in your subdirectories, you can run find src instead of ls -la to see the whole directory tree in src.

I am trying to test out Github Actions for a small web project. I have two projects in the repository, and I want to create a deployment script for only the web client.
The repository looks like this:
root
|
|-src
| |-API
| |
| |-WebClient
|
|-docs
I want to run scripts in the WebClient directory. When I try to cd into ./src/webclient, I get the error no such file or directory
name: CI

push:
branches: [ master ]
pull_request:
branches: [ master ]

run: |

cd ./src/webclient
ls -la
- name: Run a multi-line script

Error: Process completed with exit code 1.
It looks to be successfully doing the ls -la command, but fails to find the directory ./src/webclient.
Is there something obvious that I am missing? I have tried changing the command to cd src/webclient, and it fails also. This works on two different local machines, one ubuntu and one MacOS.

Github Actions - No Such File or Directory on Any Run Step

I initially tried to use Respost, but it doesn't allow setting a raw body string.
So here's a way to do it with curl.
In a .github/workflows/whatever.yml:
name: Some workflow
on:
issue_comment:
types: [created]
jobs:
comment:
if: contains(github.event.comment.body, 'special string')
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
- name: Add comment to PR
env:
URL: ${{ github.event.issue.comments_url }}
GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
run: |
curl \
-X POST \
$URL \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-H "Authorization: token $GITHUB_TOKEN" \
--data '{ "body": "blah blah" }'

I am trying to get a regular comment inserted in a pull request from a GitHub action. I can't seem to get it right. Octokit, the underlying library, allows you to create reviewComments to PRs, but those refer to a commit and that's not what I want, I want a simple comment. I figured I can just use octokit.issues.createComment. However, that does not seem to work.
Here's the code
import * as core from '@actions/core';
const {GitHub, context} = require('@actions/github')
const parse = require('parse-diff')
async function run() {
try {
// get information on everything
const token = core.getInput('github-token', {required: true})
const github = new GitHub(token, {} )
console.log( context )
const PR_number = context.payload.pull_request.number
// Check if the body contains required string
const bodyContains = core.getInput('bodyContains')
if ( context.payload.pull_request.body.indexOf( bodyContains) < 0 ) {
core.setFailed("The body of the PR does not contain " + bodyContains);
console.log( "Actor " + context.actor + " pr number " PR_number)
const result = await github.issues.createComment({
owner: context.actor,
repo: context.payload.repository.full_name,
issue_number: PR_number,
body: "We need to have the word " + bodyContains + " in the body of the pull request"
});
console.log(result)
} // more irrelevant stuff below
}}
This simply seems to retur "Not found". I can't seem to be able to find out if it's a type problem, or something different. Theoretically, owner, repo, and issue number, as well as body, should be right, and it's printed correctly. Any help will be appreciated. This is probably a more general question in the realm of GitHub API, with GitHub actions being simply the context, so I might be wrong there.

I wrote a JavaScript library to do that: github-calendar.
Here is an example how to use it:
<!-- Prepare a container for your calendar. -->
<script
src="https://cdn.rawgit.com/IonicaBizau/github-calendar/gh-pages/dist/github-calendar.min.js"
>
</script>
<!-- Optionally, include the theme (if you don't want to struggle to write the CSS) -->
<link
rel="stylesheet"
href="https://cdn.rawgit.com/IonicaBizau/github-calendar/gh-pages/dist/github-calendar.css"
/>
<!-- Prepare a container for your calendar. -->
<div class="calendar">
<!-- Loading stuff -->
Loading the data just for you.
</div>
<script>
new GitHubCalendar(".calendar", "your-username");
</script>
Here you can see it in action:
Basically, since we need cross domain requests we need a proxy. It makes a request to GitHub profile page (github.com/<user>) and then brings back the needed stuff from there.
For more information, check out the documentation on GitHub.

If you prefer to use a GUI to create the keys
Use Putty Gen to generate a key
Export the key as an open SSH key
As mentioned by @VonC create the .ssh directory and then you can drop the private and public keys in there
Or use a GUI program (like Tortoise Git) to use the SSH keys
For a walkthrough on putty gen for the above steps, please see http://ask-leo.com/how_do_i_create_and_use_public_keys_with_ssh.html

It happens because Sourcetree didn't get some private access from Github while authenticating. So the solution is very simple.
Login to your Github account on any browser.
From the top right corner select SETTINGS.
Now select DEVELOPER SETTINGS.
From DEVELOPER SETTINGS select PERSONAL ACCESS TOKEN.
Now from PERSONAL ACCESS TOKEN select GENERATE TOKEN.
Fill Note as Sourcetree and Check All Scopes from the checkbox as shown in the below screenshots.
After Click on Generate Token.
Now Open Sourcetree.
Click on Options in Tools menu & Click add Account.
Select options as shown below screenshot.
Enter username as your Github account username and password as Generated Token from Github.
Click on SAVE now you might see all your repository are visible and can clone too.
Hope it helps.

A similar issue is described here however, my symptoms are a little different and none of the steps there seemed to work. Nor does the suggestion here work.
I'm attempting to use SourceTree to clone a private repo belonging to github organization of which I am a part. I have full permissions to view and commit to the repo, I can see it online when I log in, AND I can clone just fine with the command line and also via the github desktop application. It only fails in SourceTree.
Further, it is not bad credentials or anything like that, because I can clone, commit and push to my other non-private repos on github using SourceTree with my github credentials.
From the "Clone a Repository" dialog I enter the source URL, which looks something like this:
https://github.com/MyOrgName/reponame.git
I tab off of that field and it populates the destination path and name fields, but at the bottom of the dialog is a yellow exclamation point with this error:
This is not a valid source path / URL
If I click the error message, it brings up the "Details" dialog, which states the following (twice for some reason):
remote: Repository not found.
fatal: repository 'https://github.com/MyOrgName/reponame.git/' not found
remote: Repository not found.
fatal: repository 'https://github.com/MyOrgName/reponame.git/' not found
I have also tried this by adding my username to the url like so:
https://[email protected]/MyOrgName/reponame.git
but no luck there either.

I've got a repository on github with a .css file in it. Is there any way to have github serve this file in a way that I can consume it in a web page?
In other words, I'd like to be able to reference this source file at github directly, from an HTML file on my local computer or a live domain. Something like:
<link rel="stylesheet"
type="text/css"
href="http://github.com/foouser/barproject/master/xenu-is-my-lover.css"
/>
I've tried including a<link> to the "raw" source file (http://raw.github.com...), but github serves its Content-Type as text/plain, and consequently, Chrome and FF are not adding its content as CSS styles to the page—the file's data is being discarded and a warning is shown in the debugger consoles of the browsers.

Ask for the username of the person you're adding as a collaborator. If they don't have one, they can sign up for GitHub.
In the top right corner of any page, click your username.
On your profile page, click the Repositories tab, then click the name of your repository.
In your repository's right sidebar, click Settings.
Click the "Collaborators" tab.
Start typing the collaborator's username.
Select the user from the drop-down menu.
Click Add.

My project has quite a few people and I want to give them all push & pull access because right now, they forked the project and when they make changes, they have to push to their fork and send me a pull request. Instead, I want them to be able to clone the main project at myusername/project and be able to push to it automatically.
So how would I do that?
|
Git how to give people push access that needs to be merged in by organizers?

I asked GitHub Support, this was their response (emphasis mine):
We use a separate ref namespace for all Pull Requests which we use for various things including restoring the branch. Since we keep those [Pull Request] refs indefinitely, there's no time limit on restoring a branch.
You can see these special references in your remote by using the following:
$ git ls-remote | grep pull
From [email protected]:<username>/<remote>.git
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa refs/pull/1/head
bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb refs/pull/1/merge
cccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccc refs/pull/2/head
dddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddddd refs/pull/2/merge
The references are namespaced under refs/pull/<pull request number>/. The head reference points at the tip of the branch that's being pull requested, i.e. the last commit on the branch. I'm not sure what the merge reference is though.
|
This is not a question on how to restore lost branches in Github, but rather how long you have to restore a deleted branch through the following user case story:
Within a pull request (often used as a place for code review) the branch can be merged and then deleted, all in the github GUI. Should you choose to delete it, you are given the option with a bold and underlined word, to "restore" the branch.
I suspect this option has a time limit and that github doesn't keep this available indefinitely.
Does github have a time limit on how long you can do this? If it does, what is that time limit?

For how long can you restore/recover a deleted branch on GitHub?

pip searches for the library in the Python package index. Your version is newer than the newest one in there, so pip won't update it.

Milestones are only closed manually. You can close a milestone by clicking the "close" link in the list of milestones. Note that for some reason, there is no "close" button in the milestone's details page, only in the list page of milestones.
|
How do I close/complete milestones on GitHub projects? I've already three milestones that are "overdue" but they are completed already. I simply don't know how to mark them "completed" - can anyone help me?
I already tried to Google this issue, and browsed the GitHub help pages, but couldn't find any information on using milestones.

You can leverage the GitHub Events API to perform such task and retrieve a JSON formatted response.
The Events API is a read-only interface to all the event types that
power the various activity streams on GitHub.
syntax: GET /users/:user/events
example: https://api.github.com/users/mojombo/events
An alternative way is to subscribe to the public RSS feed of a user.
For instance, Mojombo's public feed Url would be
https://github.com/mojombo.atom
Also If you want to view Full activities performed by all contributors ,you can also go to
If Private
https://github.com/orgs/YOURORGANISATION/dashboard
If Public
https://github.com/REPOSITORYOWNER?tab=activity

You don't login to Git.
You do login to a Git repository hosting server, which requests an authentication, but Git itself has no authentication nor authorization.
(As an example of a Git repository hosting service offering login:
GitHub: gh auth login
GitLab: glab auth login)
What Git does have is credential caching (check the output of git config credential helper)
On Mac: "Updating credentials from the OSX Keychain": you can check if your old user was stored there, and update it.
If you really want to disable the credential helper, you will be asked your credentials every time you push to a repository hosted on a server requesting authentication.
Regarding AgilePro's answer:
Again, there is no way to ask git to log in, instead you have to make a bogus change and then try to push the change to get it to prompt you to log in.
Not true.
Git itself does not log you in, as mentioned in my answer above.
A third-party CLI tool (like GitHub CLI gh) can connect to a repository hosting service (like github.com) and trigger the authentication.
No repository needed.
With GitHub: create first through the Web UI a Personal access tokens (classic), with minimum required scopes: repo, read:org, and gist.
Its token prefix will be ghp_....
Then authenticate yourself from the command-line, after installing gh, using gh auth login
glab auth login0
You can enter your GitHub user account name, and your token.
Then, a glab auth login1 would give you:
glab auth login2
You are authenticated (to GitHub, not to "Git").
You can also register your token with the local credential manager:
glab auth login3
This is purely for safekeeping, and does not authenticate you.

I need to change who git thinks I am so I can push to a different repo ( both are mine. ).
Here is a similar issue but I don't want to set any config variables.
I just want to login once to my current username. I plan on deleting my other account.
Here is the error when I attempt a git push origin master
remote: Permission to current_user/fav-front.git denied to
user_to_delete. fatal: unable to access
'https://github.com/current_user/repo.git/': The requested URL
returned error: 403
Please note that the git config variables for user and email ( user.name and user.email ) are not related to the authentication that git push uses.
They are used for commits.
To reiterate, I want to login to git as current user.

And.. they fixed it!
See GitHub's blog on squashing your merge commits
If you go to the settings for your repository, you'll see a "Merge Button" section (under Options). It will have 2 buttons available:
Allow merge commits
Add all commits from the head branch to the base branch with a merge commit.
and
Allow squash merging
Combine all commits from the head branch into a single commit in the base branch.
If you uncheck the first option (and left the Allow squash merging checked), PR "merges" will result in rebase and squashes.

There are a few things going on here.
In your _layouts/default.html file (and any of the other _layouts directory files for that matter), instead of:
{{ page.content }}
you need to use:
{{ content }}
Jekyll only lets you includes files from a site root level _includes directory. So, you need to move your content.md from the root to that directory (making it if it doesn't already exist).
Finally, you need to actually make the call to the include file from your index.html file. This can be done by changing the content of your index.html file to:
---
layout: default
---
{% include content.md %}
That will setup the behavior you are looking for.
I'd point out two other things:
You may find that changing the extension of your index file from .html to .md works better. An important note though: you need to use .html if you want pagination. Per the Jekyll Pagination documentation, that feature only works when the file is named _layouts0.
If all you are doing in your index file is calling an include that only resides on that page, you might be just as well off simply putting the content directly in the index file.
|
I'm probably missing something simple but I have no way to test Jekyll locally.
I'm using GitHub pages to render Jekyll, for starters I only want to render markdown content on the main index.html from one markdown page.
The structure is:
Index.html
---
layout: default
---
_layouts
- default.html
//html stuff..
<section>
{{page.content}}
</section>
In root folder I have a page called content.md that I wish to render for {{page.content}} the layout renders but the liquid tags section is blank.
How do I render content.md?

Answer for 2017: Use lein-voom
You can use lein-voom to pull and build project dependencies from GitHub or other Git repositories. It works by letting you annotate your dependence vector-pair entries with voom-specific meta data. Here's an example from the README:
^{:voom {:repo "https://github.com/ring-clojure/ring" :branch "1.3"}}
[ring/ring-core "1.3.0-RC1-20140519_142204-gaf0379b"]
The main use case given for voom is allowing teams that maintain multiple Clojure projects in separate Git repositories to easily depend on the current version of one or more of the projects from another without having to constantly deploy development snapshot releases.
I prefer lein-voom over lein-git-deps (the plugin recommended in the previously-accepted answer from 2012) for a few reasons:
The fact that the specification is given through meta-data makes this plugin more flexible and easily extensible. It already has an option for specifying a specific branch/tag of the repository. You could add other key/value pairs to the map for additional fine-grained control without too much work.
You can simply delete the meta-data from your dependence entry for stable releases; i.e., there's no need to move entries around / refactor your project.clj once your dependence moves from GitHub into Clojars.
At the time of writing (November 2017), lein-voom has been updated in the past couple of months, whereas lein-git-deps has been stagnant for 4 years.

Is it possible to have leiningen pull a project directly from a git repository (on github) as a dependency?
Using Bundler with Ruby, it is possible to map a gem to a git repo, allowing for rapid development and integration of dependent projects.

From the blog post you linked, I can see at least one benefit of tokens over SSH keys: while tokens and SSH keys both share the Unique, Revocable, and Random benefits quoted in the blog post below, tokens are also Limited in comparison to SSH keys in that they come with their own scoped permissions baked in:
While SSH keys can be read-only or read-write enabled, or scoped to specific repositories, personal access tokens do have an edge in terms of their finer-grained permissions model in comparison. This is likely why GitHub recommends tokens over SSH keys.
Tokens offer a number of security benefits over password-based
authentication:
Unique – tokens are specific to GitHub and can be generated per use or
per device
Revocable – tokens can can be individually revoked at any
time without needing to update unaffected credentials
Limited – tokens
can be narrowly scoped to allow only the access necessary for the use
case
Random – tokens are not subject to the types of dictionary or
brute force attempts that simpler passwords that you need to remember
or enter regularly might be
|
I recently started getting notifications about the GitHub deprecation of basic authentication using a password to Git - see their blog post https://github.blog/2020-12-15-token-authentication-requirements-for-git-operations/.
In this post, they say the following:
For developers, if you are using a password to authenticate Git operations with GitHub.com today, you must begin using a personal access token over HTTPS (recommended) or SSH key by August 13, 2021, to avoid disruption.
A short while ago, I started using SSH keys on some of the machines I use anyway to avoid entering my password regularly or storing it unencrypted with credential helper. However, as per above, they say personal access tokens are "recommended".
What I would like to know is what are the key differences between each of these methods? This is to get some insight into why tokens are "recommended" and whether it is worth switching to this method of authentication.

In what ways is an SSH Key different from tokens for git authentication?

You can run git rebase --abort to completely undo the rebase. Git will return you to your branch's state as it was before git rebase was called.
You can run git rebase --skip to completely skip the commit. That means that none of the changes introduced by the problematic commit will be included. It is very rare that you would choose this option.
You can fix the conflict.
Failing that, you should re-create your branch or you can be able to remove the .git/rebase-merge directory, which contains the rebase state.

I'm trying to rebase the work of a colleague.
First, I get a ton of conflicts where <<<<< head seams to contain the new code.
Then after a while I get the following error:
fatal: update_ref failed for ref 'refs/heads/dev_504':
cannot lock ref 'refs/heads/dev_504': ref refs/heads/dev_504 is at
XXXXXXX
but expected XXXXXXXX
Could not move back to refs/heads/dev_504
Then if I try to continue anyway I get the following error:
fatal: cannot resume: .git/rebase-apply/final-commit does not exist.
How can I fix this so the rebase won't give an error?

But when trying to push changes back up:

While it's not the end of the world if you commit GoogleService-Info.plist (similarly, on Android, google-services.json), you're better off leaving it out for one big reason: You're making it clear that others who build your code that they should be setting up their own Firebase project to host its configuration and data (because your project simply won't build with that file missing). Furthermore, if your project has world-writable resources in it, you can expect that people who get a hold of your app and config so easily will inadvertently start writing data into it, which is probably not what you want.
Open source projects that require a Firebase setup should ideally have it stated in the readme that anyone who wants to work with this app needs to go through the process of setting up Firebase.
The data in these config files is not exactly private - they can be extracted fairly easily from an IPA or Android APK. It's just probably not in your best interest to share them as part of your app's code.

I'm using Firebase for an iOS project that I want to open source.

I eventually found an answer by strich: on https://github.com/git-lfs/git-lfs/issues/911
I've had similar issues in the past and I think there may be a
potential bug in cloning with git lfs (Still to be determined). You
can try this method of fetching the repo, which is in fact faster too:
// Skip smudge - We'll download binary files later in a faster batch
git lfs install --skip-smudge
// Do git clone here
git clone ...
// Fetch all the binary files in the new clone
git lfs pull
// Reinstate smudge
git lfs install --force
This only needs to be done once to initialize the clone for the first
time.
Please do test it and let me know if it fixes it.

I'm trying to configure GIT on my Windows XP machine, but SSH keeps creating and looking for the public/private key pair in non-sensical places, e.g. /.ssh/id_rsa
Is there a configuration file in the GIT Installation for Windows where I can switch this to my home directory, or another user defined place? By default, it offers to create new key pairs at //.ssh/id_rsa but that gives me the error "Could not create directory '//.ssh'." And when I'm able to find a directory I can create it in, GIT won't look there.

You do not push amend to the remote repo.
git commit --amend allows you to include all current staged changes to your last commit in the local repo, instead of creating a new commit.
Let say you committed all changes but forgot to include a file include_me.js.
You may run git add include_me.js, then git commit --amend to amend your last commit.
As mentioned by knittl, if you amend an already-pushed commit, you have to force-push the branch. Beware, if anyone has pulled the branch before you force push, they will have to reset their local branch.

Why does it matter which user creates the keypair?
– Richard
Jul 7, 2013 at 23:59

Because each user has his own .ssh folder where the keys are stored. The user jenkins connects to github with his own ssh key in ~/.ssh/id_rsa. If you create them with your own user, than jenkins won't be using them, but still his own ssh keys.

Here is my setup:
Jenkins is running on my linux machine as 'jenkins' user.
I have generated a ssh key-pair as described in Linux - Setup Git, for the 'jenkins' user.
When I sudo su jenkins and try ssh -vT [email protected], I am always asked my passphrase, but I am always eventually authenicated. (the verbose option shows which key is used, among others).
I could clone my repo from GitHub using jenkins:
Thusly:
jenkins@alpm:~/jobs/test git/workspace$ git pull
Enter passphrase for key '/var/lib/jenkins/.ssh/id*_rsa':
Already up-to-date.
Up to this point I have followed the instructions to the letter. The problem is that the Jenkins job fails with the following error:
status code 128:
stdout:
stderr: Permission denied (publickey).
fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly
This is same error as I get when I typo the passphrase (but of course, Jenkins does not ask me for the passphrase). The following pages:
GitHub - SSH Issues
Using SSH Agent Forwarding
indicate to me that ssh-agent could help remember the passphrase, which it does when I am using my own user, but not the jenkins id. Note that while running as my normal user yields:
echo "$SSH_AUTH_SOCK"
/tmp/keyring-nQlwf9/ssh
While running the same command as my 'jenkins' yields nothing (not even permission denied)
My understanding of the problem is that the passphrase is not remembered.
Do you have any idea?
Shall I start a ssh-agent or key ring manager for the jenkins user? How?
Or is ssh forwarding suitable when forwarding to the same machine?
Any brighter idea?
ps: I never sudo gitted, I always used jenkins or my user account (as mentioned in this SO post - Ubuntu/GitHub SSH Key Issue)

You might need to set the path to your git executable in Manage Jenkins -> Configure System -> Git -> Git Installations -> Path to Git executable.
For example, I was getting the same error in Windows. I had installed git with chocolatey, and got the location via Powershell:

In Unix, you should be able to do:

Worked for me too. I was running out of space on a Raspberry pi due to a large .git folder. I ran this command and then git repack -a -d -f --depth=250 --window=250 the .git folder after plugging the SD card into a PC. It shrank the .git folder from 3 GB to 1GB.

I added some files to the repo, committed, and attempted to push to Github:
$ git add .
$ git commit -m 'bla'
$ git push origin master
I am getting an error when I try to push to Github.
Counting objects: 84, done.
Delta compression using up to 2 threads.
error: pack-objects died of signal 9
error: failed to push some refs to '[email protected]:xxxxx/xxxxx.git'
All was working fine before I went on vacation 2 weeks ago. Nothing has changed in the interim as far as I know. The config file seems to be fine. And git push -f also generates the same errors as above.

Download the source:
git clone https://github.com/thoughtbot/capybara-webkit.git
Build the gem:
cd capybara-webkit && gem build capybara-webkit.gemspec
Install it (the filename/version may vary):
sudo gem install capybara-webkit-0.14.1.gem
|
I want to install a ruby gem globally (sudo gem install capybara-webkit) but I want it to be installed from the master in its github repository. I know this can be done using bundler but I want to do it from the command line because I'm coding mainly using pry.

You can also clone wiki via ssh :
git clone [email protected]:YOUR_USERNAME/YOUR_REPOSITORY.wiki.git
|
I just created a Wiki for a Github repo, and cloned it to my desktop. There is only the option to clone using https, which means every time I try to push git asks me for my username and password.
Is there some way to use SSH in a Github Wiki as I do with all my standard repos?
I checked the Wiki help but couldn't find anything there.
I' using 2FA in Github by the way.

The release branch that you create is a short lived one, similar to the feature branches that you create. Once the release is finished, you delete the branch. For example, I would create a release/0.1.0 branch, do the work, and then merge.
When deploying to production, I always take the code from the master branch, meaning that I merge the release branch into master first, before deploying.
GitFlow is more about moving forward, not back. Hence why hotfixes are used to create fixes for issues that are identified.
In terms of time taken to get into Production, that is really not a concern of GitFlow, and i don't think it will provide much help in this area. This would be an issue for you regardless of which branching strategy you use.
|
Learning GitFlow and I have some concerns that I don't see addressed in any of the docs/articles I've read about it.
At some point code on the develop branch needs to be deployed to a QA/staging environment and tested rigorously. So with GitFlow you cut a release branch off of develop, and then you deploy release to said staging environment.
First, just wanted to clarify something real quick: the very first time a particular project/repo goes through this process, you'll actually be forking/creating this new release branch from develop, yes? And that all other times in the future, you're simply merging develop into release, yes?
So then QA tests the release branch on the staging env, all looks good, and we're ready to deploy to prod. Do you:
Deploy to prod and then merge release into release0? ; or
Merge release1 to release2 and then deploy to prod?
I ask because it seems like in the former case you would need to deploy the release3 branch to prod, then deploy to prod, and then merge to release4. Which sounds OK, but often prod and non-prod environments are not identical and code that runs perfectly fine in staging chokes the second it fires up on prod servers. I know GitFlow supports the concepts of hotfix branches but they are reserved for minor fixes. In the case of a complicated fix that requires a rollback/backout release, we now have "dirty code" (code that breaks prod for some reason) merged into release5.
And in the latter case, it might take hours or even days (especially if you need to involve IT/Ops to do prod deploys) from the time you merge and put in the prod release request in, to the time the prod deploy actually occurs. And during this time you have a release6 branch that says "features X, Y and Z are in prod" but they are actually not.
I'm wondering if GitFlow actually solves this somehow or what the known workarounds to either case are.
|
GitFlow: merge to master first or after prod release?

These kinds of problems occur when you use sudo to run commands with side effects such as file creation.
It's quite common to find files and directories in your home directory that are owned by root. In this case it seems your .git/config file is owned by root and thus gives you the permissions error when you try to lock it.
sudo chown bhishan -R .git from the ~/Copy/try directory should fix the permissions issue.
|
i created a folder called "try" in the path /home/bhishan/Copy/try
then inside that folder i gave some commands:
my commands are follwing:
curl -s -O \
http://github-media-downloads.s3.amazonaws.com/osx/git-credential-osxkeychain
chmod u+x git-credential-osxkeychain
sudo mv git-credential-osxkeychain `dirname \`which git\``
git config --global credential.helper osxkeychain
git init
git remote add origin https:
git remote add origin https:
git push origin master
==============================
it worked fine but, when i try to delete try folder i cannot delete the folder.
i also can not give command:
git init
inside the try folder ( i have a .git folder there)
=====================================================
my command line and error report is this:
bhishan@bhishan-HP-Pavilion-dv6-Notebook-PC:~/Copy/try$ git init
error: could not lock config file /home/bhishan/Copy/try/.git/config: Permission denied
now, my question is how can i delete the folder called "try" ?

This is how I have managed to install dependencies from private GitHub repositories.
Dependencies in package.json can be added as follows. The github: prefix is optional. Specifying the #branch or #tag is also optional.
"dependencies": {
...
"myrepo": "username/myrepo#master",
"myotherrepo": "github:username/myotherrepo"
},
Here is an example workflow. PAT is a repo scoped Personal Access Token. It is important to disable persisted credentials on actions/checkout, otherwise they will override your PAT. Note that the git config change persists between steps so you only need to run it once per job.
- uses: actions/checkout@v2
with:
persist-credentials: false
- uses: actions/setup-node@v1
with:
node-version: 12.x
- run: git config --global url."https://${{ secrets.PAT }}@github.com/".insteadOf ssh://[email protected]/
- run: npm ci
...

I am trying to run a build for a Node.js project using GitHub Actions. As part of the npm install, I need to install an npm module directly from a private GitHub repository (not from GPR!).
In the package.json I have:
"dependencies": {
...
"my-module": "github:<org>/<my-module>#master",
...
},
However, when running npm install, I get:
npm ERR! [email protected]: Permission denied (publickey).
npm ERR! fatal: Could not read from remote repository.
The repository is part of my own organization, and locally (i.e. from my machine) it works. How can I make this run?
I have already tried setting the NODE_AUTH_TOKEN environment variable, but it didn't make a difference. Although you find this suggestion quite often, it seems to only address GPR. What I would like to avoid is having to hardcode the token into the package.json file. Any thoughts on this?

MSYS is not the problem. Even if MSYS chmod doesn't work (it doesn't), Git has a built in way of getting around that problem, i.e. git update-index --chmod=+x. Let it be clear that git update-index only messes with the index (staging area), not the local repository (working directory).
I am convinced the problem is with GitHub. On GitHub if a file is initially pushed with mode 100775, all is well. If a file is initially pushed as 100644 it causes a problem. Attempts to change the file mode will succeed with git add, succeed with git commit, succeed with git push, and even show up in the GitHub file history, but not be reflected on the "blob/master" page on GitHub.
Update
From: Petros Amiridis (GitHub Staff)
Subject: How to change FIle Mode on GitHub?
I have some good news. Our awesome team has just confirmed it is a caching bug
on our end. Our team has deployed a fix.
|
$ git add test-file
$ git commit -m 'first commit'
create mode 100644 test-file
$ git push
$ git update-index --add --chmod=+x test-file
$ git commit -m 'change mode'
mode change 100644 => 100755 test-file
$ git push
After that if you go to GitHub it still shows as 100644 no matter what.

Branches are first class citizens in Git. They are not "emulated" as branches like in older VCS such SVN, CVS, etc.
If you really need three different directories, because you want to have three distinct development environment, make 3 clones:
one in a directory called master
one in a directory called imp_1
one in a directory called imp_2
But to really understand branches, you can read "Pros and cons of different branching models in DVCS".
Or, since Git 2.5 (July 2015, 4 years after the OP's question), as I detailed in Multiple working directories with Git?, use git worktree.
That will be one clone, multiple folders (one per branch).
With Git 2.7+, you can then list those folders:
$ git worktree list
/path/to/bare-source (bare)
/path/to/linked-worktree abcd1234 [master]
/path/to/other-linked-worktree 1234abc (detached HEAD)

I'm rather new to git, and am trying to set up my repository the right way.
Basically my app is a platform of sorts, so implementations of this platform are based on the master branch, but have some small modifications to those files as well as some additional files.
I tried setting it up as branches, so I have a master branch, implementation_1 and implementation_2.
But as far as I can tell, that would mean that locally all the branches are stored in one directory, with their separation being only through git.
What I would like is to have 3 local directories, master,imp_1, and imp_2. If I make a change to one of the core files in the imp_1 directory, I want to be able to merge that change into the master branch and from there into imp_2.
I'm beginning to think these need to be 3 different repositories (the implementations being forks of the core). Is that the way to go? In that case, how would I go about handling the above scenario?
|
Git - Store branches in separate local directories
|
You can do it like this:
In your repo,
git checkout -b new-branch
Then pull User A's commits into your new-branch:
git pull git://github.com/[User A]/[project-name].git
After that, you can change it whatever you like in the new-branch. And when you test and satisfy with your changes, you can merge it into your master branch:
git checkout master
git merge new-branch
OK, now you have your code with User A and your changes.
|
Is it possible to amend a pull request that someone else has started?
Assume I maintain project X, and User A has sent me a pull request. There's some things I want changed before merging and can quickly do them myself. How can I do this simply and keep it all within one PR?
Is this even possible?

You cannot import PDF as Readme, but I also don't see the point as it support the wonderful MD Language which can be seen easily with any device (also mobile).
I have fixed the equations problem by using images. There is a nice website for that: http://mathurl.com/
Just type your latex equation and click "Make Math url" (bottom left button), the copy paste the image link (in red).
I have used it in the wiki of github (but it should work the same with readme.md): https://github.com/scholi/pySPM/wiki/Mass-calibration
Enjoy!

When you say "repo ID", do you mean the URL of the repo on GitHub?
If that's what you're looking for, use git remote.

origin [email protected]:petdance/scraps.git (fetch)
origin [email protected]:petdance/scraps.git (push)
If you have multiple remote repos feeding into your local repository, all of them will be listed there.

While I definitely am not the owner of this private repo, I have been using it as part of a group for a school project, and the teacher is simply asking for the Repo's ID when sending him emails concerning anything.

To change your directory in git-bash to that specific path you can use this command :
cd /c/user/myUsername
basically you have to replace backslash with standard slash, or otherwise if you simply want to go to the parent directory you can use :
cd ..
as stated in comments that you already received on your question ...

Your username shouldn't be an email address, but your GitHub user account: pete.
And your password should be your GitHub account password (2014).
Update 2021: your password should be (since Aug. 2021) a PAT (Personal Access Token).
You actually can set your username directly in the remote url, in order for Git to request only your password:
cd C:\Users\petey_000\rails_projects\first_app
git remote set-url origin https://[email protected]/pete/first_app
And you need to create the fist_app repo on GitHub first: make sure to create it completely empty, or, if you create it with an initial commit (including a README.md, a license file and a .gitignore file), then do a git pull first, before making your git push.
|
Why won't my git push? I created the repository and I keep getting this message:

Just got hit by the same issue. It appears that you are using the url:
http://056b05cb.ngrok.io/github-webhook
Simply switch it to http://056b05cb.ngrok.io/github-webhook/ (notice the trailing /)
If you hit the url without the / on a browser, it will get a 302 and the browser will simply redirect. But the webhook does not follow redirects, so it simply tells you what the response was, which was a 302 redirect.

From the source it looks like you can just specify user and password as part of your request object.
Have you tried something like:
r = Request.new({:user => "username", :password => "password"})
Also if you look down in the Shell section of the ReadMe it has an example of specifying it as part of restshell.
$ restclient https://example.com user pass
>> delete '/private/resource'

To fix this, if you got to the Team Explorer tab and click on the Manage Connections button (the green one a the top) you will see a list of local Git Repositories.
Right click on the repository you want to stop tracking the storage.ide file on and select Open Command Prompt.
You should then be able to type the following:
git rm --cached -r .vs
This removes the .vs folder and its contents and subdirectories from being tracked in git.

I upgraded VS 2017 to 15.3.0 a few days ago. Since then file "storage.ide" has remained in my modified files, even through I have used a suggested .gitignore for VS, which includes the .vs/ folder. This includes the following.
# Visual Studio 2015 cache/options directory
.vs/
I then added the following to be more specific about ignoring this from the list of files to be tracked
.vs/SIASAWeb/v15/sqlite3/storage.ide
.vs/**/storage.ide
The Changes in the Team Explorer shows the following:
<project folder>
.vs/<project>/v15/sqlite3
storage.ide
I have tried to git reset this file, but this then returns on the next commit, and also exists in all branches which I open, resulting in this then preventing the easy shift from one branch to another even if no changes were made.
In the Solution Explorer the "applicationhost.config" and ".suo" files are marked as "ignored", but "storage.ide" is marked as "pending edit".
I have tried committing, synced to the GitHub server, closing and re-opened VS, and even rebooting the computer.
My question is why this file is being maintained as a modified file, even though it should be ignored for git.

As it turns out, badge update/rendering is a slow process. After adding the badge to my README.md, I just started off with work in another branch. After about 10 minutes (at least in my case), the badge appeared but the pipeline status was shown as 'unknown'. It updated again after about 10 minutes and with the correct pipeline status ('passing' in my case).
So, once you are done, just continue with your other stuff and it will update on its own, in sometime. Hope this helps someone!

Does GitHub have an official 'badge' for their new 'actions' feature?
I came across this request on their official repo and there seems to be an official one:
https://github.com/{github_id}/{repository}/workflows/{workflow_name}/badge.svg
as per this comment, but I am unable to get it to work. Is it actually working? When I use it, I get the below output:
Note that I have replaced {github_id} with my username, {repository} with my repo name and {workflow_name} with the corresponding workflow name (removing the curly braces). Does anyone else have this issue?
Edit: I am working on a private repo, in case it makes a difference.

Much simpler, as I explained in "How to sign out in Git Bash console in Windows?":
git credential-manager erase <url>
Here
git credential-manager erase https://github.com
No need to remove the credential helper which is practical for caching user's password.
Or (replace xxx wit the output of git config --global credential.helper):
printf "protocol=https\nhost=github.com" | git-credential-xxx erase
# Windows (2020-2021)
printf "protocol=https\nhost=github.com" | git-credential-manager-core erase
# Linux
printf "protocol=https\nhost=github.com" | git-credential-libsecret erase
# MacOs
printf "protocol=https\nhost=github.com" | git-credential-osxkeychain erase

This question already has answers here:
Configuring user and password with Git Bash
(14 answers)
Closed last month.
I have weird problem with Git bash. I have two Github accounts, let's say A and B. I set my name and email, like in account A:
git config --global user.name
git config --global user.email
I initialized new repo, did a commit, then push and git bash asked me about login and password to github. By mistake I put login and password for account B! I logged in successfully, but there is no repository I just initialized.
How can I logout and login to different github account? It's not user.name nor user.email

How to change git account in Git bash? [duplicate]

The credentials asked for, are the credentials for the repo you are trying to access, not for your Gitkraken account, which is very confusing.
If you are using visualstudio.com, you would have to generate Git credentials. Do this by browsing to your project, click 'Code' and then on the right top corner, there is a button 'clone'. Press that, a popup opens. In there, click 'generate git credentials'. Fill in a username/password combo and press 'save git credentials'. That combo will now work with GitKraken.
|
Who has been working with client GitKraken as GIT, you will know that authentication required?
For the application, log in with: [email protected]
The repository is with: [email protected]
It requires credentials to make a pull, but I tried with both emails and usernames, and does not allow me.
Capture:
In SourceTree it works perfectly, but here not!.
Thanked fully!.

I get the following error:
git: 'flow' is not a git command. See 'git --help'
Did you mean any of these?
Looks like the git flow command is not being recognized from all paths? How do I fix this?

You don't need a webhook for that. A regular post-receive hook will work very well.
To create and use such a hook you just have to login on the server where your gitlab is installed and create an ssh key for git user.
sudo -u git ssh-keygen -f /home/git/.ssh/reponame_key
(do not type any passphrase when prompted)
Go to your github account and add the public key (it's been created as /home/git/ssh/reponame_key.pub) to your project as a deploy key.
have a look at https://help.github.com/articles/managing-deploy-keys if you need help with that.
Once that is done, you just have to configure the connection between your git server and github's:
add an alias to git user's ssh configuration (add following lines to /home/git/.ssh/config - create it if it's not present)
Host reponame
IdentityFile /home/git/.ssh/reponame_key
HostName github.com
User git
Now add the new remote (using the alias you just created) to your repository:
cd /home/git/repositories/namespace/reponame.git
git remote add --mirror github reponame:youruser/reponame.git
Now that everything is in place you'll have to create the actual hook:
cd /home/git/repositories/namespace/reponame.git/hooks
echo "exec git push --quiet github &" >> post-receive
chmod 755 post-receive
The lastcommand is very important because git will check if a hook is executable before running it.
That's it!
(Replace reponame, namespace and youruser according to your real accounts and enjoy).
Last note: if you want your name andavatar near commits on github, make sure that the email address you are using on gitlab is one of the addresses inked to your github account as well. You'll see your gitlab username otherwise.

I would like to create a webhook within Gitlab to automatically update a mirror repository on Github, whenever a push event happens. I've checked this page, but I didn't understand how it is done.
My Gitlab version is 6.5. Here is the configuration page:
What should I put in URL? Where do I need to place the script to update the repository?

You could simply add a second remote:
git remote add bitbucket /url/to/am/empty/bitbucket/repo
and push everything to bitbucket:
git push --mirror bitbucket
You can actually pull from or push to multiple remotes from your local repo.
Update 2020:
As noted below in Rahulmohan Kolakandy's answer, if you are talking about an on-premise BitBucket server (as opposed to bitbucket.org), then you can take advantage of BitBucket Server Smart Mirroring.
As commented by V-Q-A NGUYEN:
BitBucket Server Smart Mirroring (introduced originally in 2016, and Oct. 2017 for BitBucket Server)
is only available for customers with an active Bitbucket Data Center license

I have a repo that I've cloned from GitHub and want to have a mirror of this repo on BitBucket. Is there is any way how to do it? Something like having two origin in the repo as I think.

You should check if 'C:\ProgramData/Git/config' actually exists. If it doesn't you can just create it and paste the following into the file:
[core]
symlinks = false
autocrlf = true
fscache = true
[color]
diff = auto
status = auto
branch = auto
interactive = true
[help]
format = html
[rebase]
autosquash = true
This worked for me.

In Visual Studio 2019, we have been using the GitHub extension successfully since before release. Now, all of the sudden, when we push, pull, or sync, we receive the following in the Output window:
Warning: 'C:\ProgramData/Git/config' has a dubious owner: '(unknown)'.
For security reasons, it is therefore ignored.
To fix this, please transfer ownership to an admininstrator.

I have two repositories:
Repository A
Repository B
I also have a project:
Project X
This Project X has Repository A and Repository B as linked repositories.
In Repository A I created several issues:
Issue 1
Issue 2
Issue 3
All these issues are appearing on the kanban board of Project X.
When I now do a commit on Repository B:
closes #1
The commit wont get linked to the Issue 1 of Repository A.
Can I configure the project in a way that I can create such references from commits from different Repositories? Or do I use this wrong?

This is probably a duplicate of GIT - Can't ignore .suo file
And to be honest, you can try that suggestion. What you are missing here is to remove the already added *.suo file from the git repository.
The other answer has a nice set of commands to run:
git rm --cached *.suo
git commit -m "Delete suo file from repository"

I want to do simple thing, ignore .suo file and bin and obj folders from committing to git repo. I've created .gitignore file and it's working for bin and obj folders, but it keeps allowing .suo file committing.
The content of gitignore is simple:
/build/
*.suo
*.user
_ReSharper.*/
*.sdf
bin/
obj/
Debug/
Release/
*.opensdf
*.tlog
*.log
TestResult.xml
*.VisualState.xml
Version.cs
Version.h
Version.cpp
Firstly I've thought that the problem is that .suo file is already on the repo, so I've used set of git commands to remove it from repo:
git rm "file.suo"
git commit -m "suo removed"
git pull origin master
git push origin master
And everything goes well, .suo is removed locally, it is removed from repo, and on the next commit it gets pushed again to repo.
On the picture is committed .suo file.
Did anyone had a problem like this? How to solve this kind of problem?

From the documentation to setup a custom domain:
Warning: Project pages subpaths like
http://username.github.io/projectname will not be redirected to a
project's custom domain.
This means that due to the relative paths you can either have the assets on your username.github.io/project-name or on your custom domain.
If you want them in the github one check what the documentation says about the baseurl configuration, it's at the bottom of the page, in the "Project Url Structure". It's simple you just need to add a
baseurl: /project-name
row to your _config.yml and use the {{ baseurl }} tag in your permalinks, jekyll will do the substitutions. And to test it locally just run the server with this option
jekyll serve --baseurl ''
Hope it helps :) Happy coding!

I have created a website and am trying to host it on git hub pages. My site is available at -
http://<username>.github.io/<project name>/
But the static files for my site are available at the following path -
http://<username>.github.io/css/site.css
http://<username>.github.io/script/main.js
The above path omits the <project name>
So whenever I hit the url my static files are not loaded.
Is there a way to make it work with the github url?
Note: When I use a custom domain everything works fine because the relative paths are fine in that case.
Temporary Solution
I have created a User page instead of a Project page to overcome this issue.

Using Atlassian's Git tutorial (link updated) as a reference.
Git checkout:
The git checkout command lets you navigate between the branches
created by git branch. Checking out a branch updates the files in the
working directory to match the version stored in that branch, and it
tells Git to record all new commits on that branch. Think of it as a
way to select which line of development you’re working on.
Source: https://www.atlassian.com/git/tutorials/using-branches#git-checkout
Git pull:
You can think of git pull as Git's version of svn update. It’s an easy
way to synchronize your local repository with upstream changes. The
following diagram explains each step of the pulling process.
Source: https://www.atlassian.com/git/tutorials/syncing#git-pull
Git fetch:
The git fetch command imports commits from a remote repository into
your local repo. The resulting commits are stored as remote branches
instead of the normal local branches that we’ve been working with.
This gives you a chance to review changes before integrating them into
your copy of the project.

I am using BitBucket for web based hosting of our projects. Along with that I am using their SourceTree for committing and such purpose. I am a bit confused with the Checkout, Fetch and Pull option available in the SourceTree interface and their usage. Can someone familiar with this tool explains the usage of these options available in SourceTree?

Github supports this now with a .gitattributes file.
Create a .gitattributes file in the root of the repository.
Use the linguist-generated attribute to mark or unmark paths that you would like to be ignored for the repository's language statistics and hidden by default in diffs.
For example, to mark search/index.json as a generated file, add this line to .gitattributes:
search/index.json linguist-generated=true

For me all the files in the directory marked as "linguist-generated" pop up with empty content(with the "Load diff" button). Is this the expected behavior or is it expected for the files to not come up in the PR?

I'm seeing the same behaviour as @livinston the files are still shown in the diff, but you have to click the "Load Diff" button to see the content. This isn't helpful for my purposes as the files I want to exclude are large, so they were displayed like this anyway, and I also want them excluded from the count.

We frequently use the Files Changed tab on a pull request to peer review the work we have done on a branch, unfortunately a major part of our development process is regenerating Flex services so when viewing the files changed 99% of the changes are irrelevant. This makes it very easy to miss important changes that should be reviewed.
We know the folder that these regenerated services live in, and we could commit all the regen changes in one commit if that would help.
Does anyone have any suggestions how we can improve this? Ideally we would exclude a folder from the pull request diff.

You could use a git filter driver which would, on checkout, take your README.md (needed by GitHub) and generate a proper README (needed by Python, although Lennart Regebro's answer suggests that PyPI does not require any README file)
So, keeping aside the fact that PyPI doesn't need a README (and the warning could be simply ignored), here is how you could (in general) generate the expected file with Git:
However, any modification to that private file README would need to be reported manually to the README.md file (at least because of markdown syntax which no script can guess for you)
That is why Noufal Ibrahim's answer (which I upvoted) might be more adapted, especially if you have access to symlinks (I am still with Windows Xp at work, so no luck for me):
Having make README being a symlink to README.rst, or, as Arto Bendiken comments:
=> having README.rst being a symlink ro README.
Git will store the symlink (and not the file the symlink refers to), so you can have both README and its README.rst file in your Git repo.
|
Python packaging tools expect that our readme file should be named README or README.txt. But if we follow this convention, GitHub displays it as plain text in the project page which is not pretty. (unlike the beautiful HTML version when named as README.rst)
Is there any technique to make both PyPI and GitHub happy about README.

Is there a way to get MarkdownSharp (I'm using the NuGet package) to handle 'GitHub flavored Markdown (GFM)' and especially syntax highlighting of c# code, which (in GFM) is written like this:
```c#
//my code.....
```
So, if I pass Markdown formatted content to MarkDownSharp, containg a C# code block (as above) I want it to generate syntax highlighted html for that c# code. Any ideas? I know I can use the supported 4 spaces to indicate a code block, but again, I'm seeking a solution for getting it to support GitHub flavored Markdown.

You can't push straight from Github to Heroku.
You're going to have to use the third host to coordinate the push. This could be fired from a Github post-receive hook.
To sync straight across use something like:
git remote add github [email protected]:user/repo.git
git remote add heroku [email protected]:app.git
git push heroku refs/remotes/github/master:refs/heads/master
|
I have a github repo that I want to push to a heroku node. A 3rd host will be co-ordinating this. As I'm going to be doing this on a large scale I want to avoid having to download the contents of the repo onto the 3rd host. How do I do it?

GitHub sets the committer for all commits made using their web interface to the user web-flow.

UPDATE: the behavior described below wasn't intended. pushed_at will be updated any time a commit is pushed to any of the repository's branches. updated_at will be updated any time the repository object is updated, e.g. when the description or the primary language of the repository is updated. It's not necessary that a push will update the updated_at attribute -- that will only happen if a push triggers an update to the repository object. For example, if the primary language of the repository was Python, and then you pushed lots of JavaScript code -- that might change the primary language to JavaScript, which updates the repository object's language attribute and in turn updates the updated_at attribute. Previously, the primary language was getting updated after every push, even if it didn't change (which wasn't intended), so it triggered an update to updated_at.
The difference is that pushed_at represents the date and time of the last commit, whereas the updated_at represents the date and time of the last change the the repository. A change to the repository might be a commit, but it may also be other things, such as changing the description of the repo, creating wiki pages, etc. In other words, commits are a subset of updates, and the pushed_at timestamp will therefore either be the same as the updated_at timestamp, or it will be an earlier timestamp.
|
Looking to V3 API Repos (GET /repos/:owner/:repo) we have 3 datetime :
"pushed_at": "2011-01-26T19:06:43Z",
"created_at": "2011-01-26T19:01:12Z",
"updated_at": "2011-01-26T19:14:43Z",
to have a fast example just link this https://api.github.com/repos/twitter/bootstrap
What is the difference between pushed_at and updated_at ?

Ok I got the answer from IRC after a long chat. I'll have to work with forks and pull requests, or add pre-push hooks on each dev's machine since GitHub doesn't allow per branch permissions neither pre-publish canceling hooks. Here is a part of the answers I got:
Fork the repository. then the developer can work on their own version of the repository, and doesn't have to worry about committing to the wrong branch. And then someone upstream can always merge into whatever branch should be committed into.
Yeah but we're a company and we don't want that all our devs have forks
Why not?
Well they should be able to push their branch on a common repo to work with some other devs on the same feature for example.
Have a read through https://help.github.com/articles/using-pull-requests. You can still send patches around between multiple forks. This is the model that git was built on
I know but I want to be able to see quickly in a central way the actual work on any feature/hotfix, ...
To cut a long story short: GitHub doesn't support per-branch permissions

I have some Git private repositories on a GitHub company account, and I don't want anybody to push on some specific branches (like master, develop and beta or by pattern). I also tried to define some hooks but I want this to be done on GitHub and not done with a pre-push hook on the clients.
So to explain my problem simply, I want:
git push origin develop
to be refused by the server (which is GitHub) because of the branch name, but I do not want a client check by pre-push hook, I really want GitHub to do the check and refuse it.
Also if it's possible to allow only certain users to do so, but disabling it for everybody would be enough at first.
