…of the Hobo and Ruby on Rails community uses git for version control. Git is awesome, but there are two common pain points: its learning curve, and submodules.
I won't go into the problems with git submodules here. If you've got a small project with only one developer and you never need to modify your submodules, you're unlikely to run into problems, but as you add developers and start modifying the modules, hassles quickly creep in.
In the past, when you added a plugin …

…Linus wrote Git, and then that just increased it even more, because everybody can use Git. Our development model increased its capacity, and part of that was that we started trusting more people. Now we have subsystem maintainers and such.
As I said, I maintain the subsystems such as USB, and I have people who I trust enough that if they send me a patch, I'll take it, no questions asked. Because the most important thing is I know that they will still be around in case there's …

Write commit notes $ git notes add # opens the editor to add a note to the last commit
Git notes are annotations for existing commits. They don't change the history, so you are free to add notes to any existing commits. Your notes are stored only in your repo, but it's possible to share notes . There are interesting ideas for possible use-cases for notes , too.

…out all of CoolProject's code from Subversion. I checked it into Git. I created a branch called coolproject_subversion that will be updated with updated with CoolProject's Subversion repository per the method below. My company will commit our changes to master. Once in a while, I'll merge changes from coolproject_subversion to master.
This is a brutally blunt method. We're losing all of Subversion's change history, all their commit messages, etc. However, …

Using Git Inside a Git Hook can cause problems. In my previous post: " Signal 13 Problems with Git Hooks " I describe how we are trying to automatically merge certain types of branches into a branch that is designed to hold them all. Anyway, that means we want to run some git commands inside of the git hook. We change dirs into another directory where we have a clone of the repo and start telling git to merge some stuff and we get a bunch of

Ran into a gotcha in Git today when trying to write a post push hook. We want our designer to have a fast turn around time with clients so we're writing some hooks to merge all of the 'theme' branches he works with to get merged into a special preview branch witch is then deployed to the preview site. And all this should happen after he does a 'git push.' Seems like a 'post-receive' hook is just what we want.
Except that every time we tried to create one we got these errors on a push:
