nmbug
|
||||||
|
-----
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
nmbug adds a `clone` command for setting up the initial repository and
|
||||||
|
uses `@{upstream}` instead of `FETCH_HEAD` to track upstream changes.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The `@{upstream}` change reduces ambiguity when fetching multiple
|
||||||
|
branches, but requires existing users update their `NMBGIT`
|
||||||
|
repository (usually `~/.nmbug`) to distinguish between local and
|
||||||
|
remote-tracking branches. The easiest way to do this is:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
1. If you have any purely local commits (i.e. they aren't in the
|
||||||
|
nmbug repository on nmbug.tethera.net), push them to a remote
|
||||||
|
repository. We'll restore them from the backup in step 4.
|
||||||
|
2. Remove your `NMBGIT` repository (e.g. `mv .nmbug .nmbug.bak`).
|
||||||
|
3. Use the new `clone` command to create a fresh clone:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
nmbug clone http://nmbug.tethera.net/git/nmbug-tags.git
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
4. If you had local commits in step 1, add a remote for that
|
||||||
|
repository and fetch them into the new repository.
