Some of the errors and recovery procedures are a bit confusing. The one which got me yesterday is the error "File exists" when another user with a too-secure umask has created files in the git repository. What it actually meant was that the file exists and my git couldn't delete/modify it. > Yes! Please flatten the learning curve or at least make it > less steep. How? > Yes again! Provide some git for idyots doco. What exactly do you want? There's already http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/everyday.html in the distribution and others outside it like http://wiki.sourcemage.org/Git_Guide > And again!

One problem is that CVS is actually conceptually broken, which was part of the motive for git, but there's http://git.or.cz/course/cvs.html (which uses cg not git, but I think the actual commands in light blue are interchangable apart from the switch command); or http://www.chem.helsinki.fi/~jonas/git_guides/HTML/CVS2git/CVS2git.html#SECTION00061000000000000000 Hope that helps, -- MJ Ray (slef) LMS developer and webmaster at | software www.software.coop http://mjr.towers.org.uk | .... co IMO only: see http://mjr.towers.org.uk/email.html | .... op _______________________________________________ Koha-devel mailing list Koha-devel@lists.koha.org http://lists.koha.org/mailman/listinfo/koha-devel
