Hello fellow programmers,
I accidentally added my whole project to my project, not once, but twice, as I was looking for another functionality. Since the folders didn't show up in Xcode itself, I went to Finder and deleted them manually from the filesystem again (so far so good, since I got all warning 4x).
But now, when I want to commit changes to the sourceCode control, I get this error:
fatal: Could not switch to '/Users/myID/Developer/iOS/ProjectName/ProjectName/ProjectName': No such file or directory
I have pretty much no clue what to do, has anyone ever had such a problem? Cleaning the project does not help, that's all I could think off, as I'm not that experienced!
Help I HIGHLY appreciated!
PS: I'm running Xcode 4.3.2 on OSX 10.7.4
For something as serious as this I would create a new git repo, starting from the commit revision before the screw-up.
Assume your code is in ~/Source/MyProject.
First you are going to need the commit revision before the screw-up. You can get his from the command line using git log or better still you can use the excellent (and free) SourceTree Mac App. Lets assume it's 62a6614fb55d692cd5a6e251cc05dea45d9668fe.
Next start a new repo: $ mkdir ~/Source/MyProjectNew; cd ~/Source/MyProject/New; git init.
Add the old project as the 'remote origin' of the new project: $ git remote add origin ~/Source/MyProject.
Fetch the pre-screwed code: $ git fetch origin 62a6614fb55d692cd5a6e251cc05dea45d9668fe.
Reset the master branch to the pre-screwed commit: $ git reset --hard FETCH_HEAD.
Remove the origin: $ git remote rm origin.
You now have a new repo without the screwed-up code. You need to rename the old and new repo and carry on with your life.

I'm trying to add a new package to my project with go modules. This package is using github.com/docker/docker/client and works fine outside of the project. When I run go mod vendor it pulls docker client package of version v1.13.1 which does not have some of the methods I am using in my code, but in go modules it is tagged as latest. How do I make go mod use the truly latest version of a package?
Go Wiki: Modules:
When needed, more specific versions of dependencies can be chosen with commands such as go get foo#v1.2.3, go get foo#master, go get foo#e3702bed2, or by editing go.mod directly.
If you need the latest commit on the master branch, use
go get github.com/docker/docker/client#master
This was driving me insane, too: Downloading the "master" or "latest" tag would often download versions one or two commits before HEAD. I found the answer here:
The go command defaults to downloading modules from the public Go
module mirror at proxy.golang.org. It also defaults to validating
downloaded modules, regardless of source, against the public Go
checksum database at sum.golang.org. These defaults work well for
publicly available source code.
And apparently there is some caching going on; if you wait a while it usually starts to work, alternatively it helps to temporarily set the version to a specific commit.
To fix it, I set GOPRIVATE=github.com/myuser.
In order to get the latest un-tagged version, you need to specify the commit tag you want to have when doing go get
go get github.com/docker/docker/client#[commit-hash]
Would recommend using a specific version (preferred tagged version, if not latest pseudo version instead of master). Having dependency versions locked down in the go.mod file ensures repeatability.
The latest version available in one of the go proxies is https://search.gocenter.io/github.com~2Fdocker~2Fdocker/info?version=v1.14.0-0.20190511020111-3998dffb806f
Spent the last 20 hours trying to fix a similar problem, in my case, the following steps solved the problem:
delete $GOPATH/pkg/sumdb
delete the go.mod and go.sum files
recreate the module: go mod init name
go test ./...
My circumstances don't align perfectly with the original question, but I feel it may be worth mentioning to help others in situations similar to mine:
Context
Was working with private modules, i.e., a Go module hosted from private git repository.
Access to the private repo was not an issue.
Would make and push changes to the private module.
A program that imported the private module would consistently pull an old version when running go get, even after running:
go clean -modcache
rm go.sum
go get
go mod tidy
Root Cause: I'm an Idiot
I had forgotten that Go uses VCS tagging with versioning.
Failed to update the tag to match the current commit.
The Fix
The version wasn't ready to be bumped (learning, here), so, in the private module, I ran the following command to align the version with the current commit:
Note: This assumes that all repo content has been staged/committed/pushed.
In the private module repo
git tag -d v0.0.0
git push --delete v0.0.0
git tag v0.0.0
git push origin v0.0.0
In the repo that was importing the private repo
go clean -modcache
rm go.sum
go get
go mod tidy
I have created a remote Git repository for a new project. I have added to my remotes and XCode recognizes it. When creating the new project, I checked the box for Source Control > create git repository on: and selected "Add to New Server"
When I enter my login credentials, I get the following message:
The server https://... is unavailable or may not exist. Check the server address, check your network connection, and then try again.
I have verified that my login is correct and the url is definitely valid. What might I be doing wrong?
Thanks!
Was able to solve my issue using the following:
git remote add origin git#github.com:pheepster/<repoName>.git
git push origin master:master
with the help of: https://stackoverflow.com/a/14470400/2115842
In addition to the two git commands in #Pheepster's answer, I suggest you check you are running the current version of GIT on both the development Mac and Server. Once I had the current version of GIT on both systems the two lines above solved my issue.
I just completed Chapter One of the Ruby on Rails Tutorial by Hartl. Posted about one minor hitch previously. Now I started Chapter Two. I swear I did everything by the book, but now when I try:
git push -u origin master
I get the following messages after entering my passphrase:
ERROR: repository not found
fatal: could not read from remote repository
Please make sure you have the correct access rights and that the repository exists.
When I down loaded heroku tools I think it installed a second version of Ruby on my machine. In any case I now have two version listed under All Programs. Could this have screwed thing up? The two versions are Ruby 1.9.2-p290 and 1.9.3-p327. Also when I open the command prompt using 1.9.2 there is a weird thing at the top before I do anything:
'C:\Program' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
This is then followed by the normal prompt on the next line. I'm wondering if the use of my public keys have some how gotten screwed up.
Any help would be appreciated.
You should add a new git remote.
check https://help.github.com/articles/adding-a-remote
So i had problems with windows and multiple versions of ruby too. I would recommend deinstalling all versions and only installing one ruby version. But thats not related to your Github problem i guess.
Switch via the commandline to your app folder and checkout:
git remote -v
it shows you what is the remote location for you app. And 5 bucks that its screwd up. You can remove the path by:
git remote rm origin
or if its only on heroku:
git remote rm heroku
and after that add the correct remote path again. Example:
git remote add origin git#github.com:foo/bar.git
That hopefuly fix it.
And keep in mind if you want to push to heroku use:
git push heroku master
I want to develop an iOS application that executes the git clone command to basically get a repository on the phone. After that the only command is git fetch so I will periodically update the files. After those 2 commands nothing more is required. just local parsing on the files.
My question is can I do that on iOS? I had a similar application working on ubuntu, and it was quite easy to do using 'git .....' commands
you cant launch other apps / processes on ios so you cant call the git executable.
BUT there is libgit2 - a c static lib you can use in your ios app to work with git: see http://libgit2.github.com
there is a objC wrapper that makes it a breeze to use: see https://github.com/libgit2/objective-git
You can use Git on iOS via the iSH app.
That is, you can install the app, install Git using apk add git, and then you are good to go.
This might not be directly useful to you, but I'm writing this here because this was the first hit on Google when I searched for "how to git push/git pull on iPhone"
The story:
I've been developing a RoR-app in both my desktop and laptop. It was quite handy to commit changes made on another, push them to github and fetch & merge on other.
The starting point is this: I committed latest changes on my desktop, pushed them to github and then fetched and merged them into my laptop. Then, I made some commits on laptop and pushed to github. Took the changes, merged to my desktop (with --no-ff). THEN, happened the probable source of all mischiefs: I reverted the desktop to commit where it was before the latest fetch & merge. Made some development work with it, committed, pushed to github. In the laptop, I did the revert as well, though I reverted it to a commit which was made somewhere between the latest fetch from github, fetched again and merged those. Some error messages came after reverting desktop and laptop both, but things worked still fairly well and I kept working on both machines.
Until now. I tried to push from my laptop to github, which gives the following output:
Counting objects: 106, done.
error: unable to find 5a2a4ac...
error: unable to find bc36923...
error: unable to find ecb0d86...
error: unable to find f76d194...
error: unable to find f899df7...
Compressing objects: 100% (64/64), done.
fatal: failed to read object 5a2a4ac... : Invalid argument
error: failed to push some refs to 'git#github:username/repo.git'
So, the question is, what exactly took place here?
EDIT: It seems that because of suspending my laptop and moving it from place to place in that state screwed up the hard drive somehow. The fsck output is unavailable because we worked around the problem and kept on working, but IIRC some branches and commits were dangling, including that commit which git failed to read. - Teemu
I have run into these kinds of issues.
Rather than spending hours trying to resolve and fix these issues, my 'solution' is usually to take the code I want, copy it into a new directory, delete the .git files and then create a new github for it and then connect the two as usual.
Although this may not be a specific answer to the details you raise, I find that there can be a number of ways that git/github issues can happen and rather than wishing I was a 'git expert' now (it's happening but it takes time), I do the above and continue with my actual application development.
The problem you have is that you are trying to read objects that are not part of your 'tree'. They exist but they have been orphaned. However, git allows you to merge one project to another so this is one way you can keep your commits without starting again, something like the following:
git remote add -f somename git://somegitplace.com/user/some.git
git merge -s ours --no-commit somename/master
git read-tree --prefix=ext/somename -u somename/master
git commit -m 'external merge'
git pull -s subtree somename master
Hope that helps. Let me know if not and we can attack it again
