Question

On my AWS instance I created an empty git repo. From TortoiseGit on XP, I pushed to the server and all seemed to go well. But there is no indication on the server that anything has happened - nothing new in git status or git log.

Where are the files I thought I pushed?

If I need to do a pull from the server instead of a push to it, what do I use as the URL of my Windows box?

Was it helpful?

Solution

I have the same problem on my setup: TortoiseGit 1.5.8.0, git version 1.7.3.1.msysgit.0, but I found the solution. In my case the “Git Command Progress” window does not appear until… I kill git.exe process . When killed, push succeeds.

OTHER TIPS

I don't use TortoiseGit but, you should register remote repository url first using 'git remote' command. Then you can use its alias instead of url like 'git push master'.

Why would there be files on the server? It only ever stores objects. The files themselves are contained in blobs.
