version control - Git, and moving between development machines -
i have github account , have been pushing stuff there months. don't know how use git, hasn't been problem since 1 working on project. (i thought getting account start experience version control...)
anyhow, work desktop go travelling need laptop working.
a few months ago same thing went laptop, got connected github, , cloned repository. that's did though, since trip got cancelled.
after reading around web today went laptop , did git pull origin master
. seemed going ok, halted saying local changes overwritten merge, listing files. happy overwrite these changes, i'm not sure how it.
basically, date have been issuing following commands desktop:
git add . git commit - m 'my message here' git push origin master
i able to:
- pull code down laptop , modify it
- push changes github
- pull changes down desktop (where return travels!)
- (repeat above whenever travel again...)
ideally i'd able exclude files being tracked (e.g. htaccess) since depend on machine using. (this not imperative though, since can manually them , restore them...)
can make easy me? have read several tutorials online none dealing exact scenario, , different...
"i happy overwrite these changes, i'm not sure how it."
git reset --hard git pull origin master
you can use git in new computer same way in old computer.
"ideally i'd able exclude files being tracked..."
create .gitignore in same directory , put names of files exclude in it.
if you're using windows, how create .gitignore file
