I am a little familiar with Mercurial and heard that they are quite similar in concepts. So I started by creating repository by command “Git create repository here”.
Then I created “Git Clone” of my repository in new folder. Then I started to play and created new files and commited changes. But then, when I tried to push my changes to master repository I got big ugly error:
git.exe push "origin" master:master
remote: error: refusing to update checked out branch: refs/heads/master
remote: error: By default, updating the current branch in a non-bare repository
remote: error: is denied, because it will make the index and work tree inconsistent
remote: error: with what you pushed, and will require 'git reset --hard' to match
remote: error: the work tree to HEAD.
remote: error:
remote: error: You can set 'receive.denyCurrentBranch' configuration variable to
remote: error: 'ignore' or 'warn' in the remote repository to allow pushing into
remote: error: its current branch; however, this is not recommended unless you
remote: error: arranged to update its work tree to match what you pushed in some
remote: error: other way.
remote: error:
remote: error: To squelch this message and still keep the default behaviour, set
remote: error: 'receive.denyCurrentBranch' configuration variable to 'refuse'.
To C:\########
! [remote rejected] master -> master (branch is currently checked out)
error: failed to push some refs to 'C:\########'
This was quite confusing and error is not helping much. Also this scenario was working nicely with Mercurial, so I was really confused. But after some googling I found really nice article about git at http://cworth.org/hgbook-git/tour/, and it is explained nicely how to create repository that can be used with “push”. You just have to create it with
git --bare init --shared
It is really strange that there is no any option that can be set while creating repository and you still have to do it command line way. But issue was solved.
