Git
Creating a new Project
$ tar xzf project.tar.gz $ cd project $ git init
Git will reply
Initialized empty Git repository in .git/
You've now initialized the working directory--you may notice a new directory created, named ".git".
Next, tell git to take a snapshot of the contents of all files under the current directory (note the .), with git-add:
$ git add .
This snapshot is now stored in a temporary staging area which git calls the "index". You can permanently store the contents of the index in the repository with git-commit:
$ git commit
Add a repo to gitosis
mkdir free_monkey cd free_monkey git init git remote add origin git@YOUR_SERVER_HOSTNAME:free_monkey.git # do some work, git add and commit files git push origin master:refs/heads/master
Importing from CVS
$ git cvsimport -v -d <cvsroot> -C <destination> <module>
Push local branch to Repo
$ git push origin branchname
List all remote branches
$ git branch -a
Checkout remote branch into local branch
$ git checkout -b experimental origin/experimental
