Interestingly if I name the branch upstream-master then it shows up just fine and works as expected.Īnother consideration to keep in mind is – if a user clicks a branch corresponding to an upstream remote branch that doesn’t have a local branch name that conflicts, Desktop currently creates a local branch for it that does not have any upstream prefix. It’s not immediately clear to me why this happens. Note: Currently if I run git checkout -b upstream/master remotes/upstream/master on the command line, for some reason Desktop displays heads/upstream/master in the “Other Branches” list, and when clicked on the app puts you in detached head state. Now when the user checks the branch list they should see upstream/master in their “Recent branches” list. Under the hood, Desktop could run git checkout -b upstream/master remotes/upstream/master and this would produce the following config settings: Ideally, when the user clicks this, Desktop will detect that there’s a clash in branch name and create a new local branch called upstream/master and set up the proper remote tracking info for this branch. It’s referring to a remote branch that Git uses to track where the remote branch tip is (presumably output from git branch -remote).Ĭurrently when the user clicks this Desktop tries to create another branch called master, which fails because we of course already have a branch called master. Right now, this upstream/master is not actually referring to a local branch. And under “Other Branches” we see upstream/master. In the branch list we see master which tracks with origin/master. Say we’ve forked a repo, open it in Desktop (using the “Clone or download” button), and click “Fetch origin” to ensure that the remote branch refs have been fetched. I’ll do a brain dump here in order to capture what I thought about and discovered. They include the HEAD, your staging index and, finally, the working directory.I explored this a bit and decided to put it down for now in favor of other work. Those systems are called three trees of Git. It includes three invocation forms matching the tree internal state management systems of Git. The git reset command is a useful method for undoing changes in Git. It is especially useful for switching between several features in a single repository. You can run it on commits, branches, as well as, files. Switching branches and restoring working tree files is what the git checkout command is used for. The content that has been fetched, should be accurately checked out using the git checkout command.
With it, you can see what other members of the group have been working on. The git fetch command is applied for downloading commits, references, and files from the remote repository into a local one. For summarizing the changes whenever you intend to \fix the bugs or add new properties is created a new branch. It is aimed at pointing to a snapshot of your changes. Most version control systems allow branching. It doesn’t give you an option to switch between branches and put a forked history back together. The git branch command is targeted at creating, listing and deleting branches. Git checkout -t /test The git branch Command
