Hello, using IntroductionJava> git remote add -f CSM41 /home/kullmann/csoliver/UofT/Java0910/ProgrammingJava/CS-M41_Programs IntroductionJava> git merge -s ours --no-commit CSM41/master IntroductionJava> git read-tree --prefix=Artikel/Skripte/IntroductionJava/CS_M41/ -u CSM41/master IntroductionJava> git commit -m "Einfuegen des CS-M41-Projektes als Verzeichnis CS_M41" I have imported repository "CS-M41_Programs" into another repository. Later then I replaced in the config-file the old url /home/kullmann/csoliver/UofT/Java0910/ProgrammingJava/CS-M41_Programs by the new one [remote "CSM41"] url = git://github.com/OKullmann/CS-M41-Programming-in-Java.git fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/CSM41/* But now IntroductionJava> git pull -s subtree CSM41 master doesn't work anymore: In the CSM41 repository just one file index.html was changed, and apparently the merge strategy recognises that the other files haven't been changed, while index.html is placed just as if the relative path would start from the root of the repository. IntroductionJava> git pull -s subtree CSM41 master remote: Counting objects: 7, done. remote: Compressing objects: 100% (3/3), done. remote: Total 4 (delta 1), reused 0 (delta 0) Unpacking objects: 100% (4/4), done. >From git://github.com/OKullmann/CS-M41-Programming-in-Java * branch master -> FETCH_HEAD CONFLICT (delete/modify): Artikel/LaTeX/SystemStile/Html/index.html deleted in HEAD a nd modified in 38b11a96fa009a5b2c24cfc94c0268ab9ca7ce39. Version 38b11a96fa009a5b2c24 cfc94c0268ab9ca7ce39 of Artikel/LaTeX/SystemStile/Html/index.html left in tree. Automatic merge failed; fix conflicts and then commit the result. IntroductionJava> git status # On branch master # Unmerged paths: # (use "git reset HEAD <file>..." to unstage) # (use "git add <file>..." to mark resolution) # # deleted by us: ../../LaTeX/SystemStile/Html/index.html # no changes added to commit (use "git add" and/or "git commit -a") The path of index.html is Artikel/Skripte/IntroductionJava/CS_M41/Html/index.html. Why git thinks that index.html should be placed into another directory Artikel/LaTeX/SystemStile/Html/ I have no clue (this directory doesn't exist). Is it possible to tell "git pull" where the subtree really is, or is that not really the cause of the problem? Thanks for your consideration!
