I have a short script which does the following for a remote git
rpository:
Clones it (checking out a working tree)
Makes tracking local branches for all remote branches
Init/updates all submodules.
This gives me an up-to-date mirror of a remote repository. I treat
this as essentially read-only.
What I now want to do is have some command which will update this
local mirror to reflect exactly the state of the remote mirror;
even when the remote mirror may have rebased history.
So far, I'm doing the following:
git fetch
for BRANCH in $(git branch -r | cut -d / -f 2); do
git checkout $BRANCH
git reset --hard origin/$BRANCH
done
git submodule update --init
but I'm not sure if that's actually the right way to do it, or if I'm
missing any corner cases. Am I safe to use it?
Thanks,
Toby
