QUESTION
In the book progit
, it says the following line:
The Git directory is where Git stores the metadata and object database for your project. This is the most important part of Git, and it is what is copied when you clone a repository from another computer.
There are two things that I don't understand here. I suppose the git directory is the .git folder, so, where are the different snapshots stored there? It seems the folder is way too small to have them there.
The other thing is, it says that when you clone a git repository it copies the .git folder, but doesn't it also copy the file contents in the working tree? or does it take it out of the .git folder?

It might seem too small, but they're there. Git uses deltas purely for storage compression, the compression engine doesn't care where duplicated content is, if you've got say a license hunk or other boilerplate in all your files, it's very likely stored (in the packs) just once.
Git's first-cut storage is a straight zlib-compressed snapshot with a little type-and-length prefix.

QUESTION
I am working with Git for more than one year and now I have to explain it to others in our group. That is why I need a bit more backround. I went thourgh most of the Git Book in the last year and recently I continued with chapter 10. In chapter 10.6 I got completely stuck:

ANSWER
Answered 2017-Mar-23 at 13:53Well, you're getting into plumbing details; even if you have to explain Git to a team of coworkers, I'm surprised by the idea that this level of detail would be needed...
Anyway, the info/refs
file would only exist on a remote meant to be accessed by HTTP with a dumb server. You probably won't find it (and don't need it) in your local repo. (The remote in this scenario is probably a bare repo, btw, so info
would be at the repo root, as bare repos don't have a work tree and place the files you're used to seeing in .git
at the root instead.)
If our remote is in something like github, tfs, etc... then you just don't need to worry about any of this as the server will manage things just fine. I guess if you served the repo as static content from a plain old web server then this would matter, and you'd have to set up the hook.
Most users will never use or see the update-server-info
command; as its name suggests, it's for repos on the server side - remotes - to compensate for the lack of a git-aware HTTP server.
The post-receive hook is invoked after receiving a push; so on a dumb server scenario, you set this hook on the remote so that when you push to it, it responds by updating certain information (like the refs file).
The GET
command you're looking at is an HTTP command, run when necessary by the git client when you do a fetch.
QUESTION
I have been studying from the book ProGit, and stumbled upon this paragraph under the topic "Reset Demystified":
Switching branches or cloning goes through a similar process. When you checkout a branch, it changes HEAD to point to the new branch ref, populates your Index with the snapshot of that commit, then copies the contents of the Index into your Working Directory.
However, as you can see in the below terminal output, I am unable to replicate the behavior.
...ANSWER
Answered 2018-Nov-08 at 08:36As far as I know, Git checkout will carry over modified files in your working directory when switching branches. The documentation supports this claim:
git checkout
To prepare for working on , switch to it by updating the index and the files in the working tree, and by pointing HEAD at the branch. Local modifications to the files in the working tree are kept, so that they can be committed to the .
As to why Git might have this behavior, this prevents accidentally wiping out changes in the working directory by changing branches.
QUESTION
Beginer with git so please forgive my ignorance.
I am trying to learn git and I am reading the ProGit book available for free on internet. as far as I can see the command line for this has many more options than the the GIT default plugin in Eclipse>
I need to learn as much GIT as to manage my local code end eventually later to push some of it on GitHub or elsewhere.
Having that said are there any pros and cons for using the command line only ? To keep the things simpler should I stick with the plugin ?
...ANSWER
Answered 2018-Oct-12 at 13:17I'd recommend learning the basics of git (how a branch works, how to merge, how to pull and push code) from the GUI. Once you know the basics, learning which commands correspond to which GUI actions should be easy.
Purists will tell you that you will always have more control in the terminal. This is true, but no need to throw yourself into the deep end as a beginner. Get functional, then get fancy.
Most anything you can do in the command line, you'd be able to do in the GUI, but sometimes the command line is the only way to do whatever it is you need to do. This is especially true when you get into the more advanced parts of git: rebase, cherry-pick. It's a great skill to have, especially in cases where the GUI is not available, like when you are remote accessing a server.
The general question of GUI vs CLI is explored at length in In the Beginning... Was the Command Line.

QUESTION
I'm currently learning git by following the book "progit 2nd edi".
In the section "inspecting a remote", the author had the following example.
I have noticed that the "markdown-strip" branch is absent in the section "local branch configured for git pull" but present in section "local ref configured for git push". I was wondering why this is the case.
PS: I understand how "git pull" and "git push" works. It is the absence of "markdown-strip" branch in "local branch configured for git pull" that's puzzling me.
...ANSWER
Answered 2017-Aug-06 at 10:52This seems to be a synthetic example, so it could just be a mistake. However, it could also be a side effect of a particular configuration, where local branch markdown-strip
has no upstream set.
Remember, the upstream of any branch is a two-part setting that you can set with one command:
