Hi,
I've moved a project from CVS on sourceforge to git on repo.or.cz. I
want a local mirror on my own home server, so that it appears amongst
the projects shown by my own gitweb set up, and so it gets caught by
my backup system. I've created the mirror with
git clone --bare <remote-url> <local-dir>
and that seems fine. But how do I now keep it up to date. I was
guessing a cron job doing some sort of git pull, but pull doesn't
look to work on --bare proj.git type repositories.
You probably want "git fetch". Actually, "git pull" does a fetch first
(get the remote revisions that you don't have), and then a merge with
your working tree.
Yeah, that's what I thought, but it doesn't seem to work with --bare
repositories that are of the form proj.git, rather than having a dir
proj containing checkout files and a .git folder. Both pull and fetch
say that it isn't a git repository (although I can view it under gitweb,
and I can clone and pule from it).
