I would suggest checking out an older revision of the extension into a
new git branch. That way you can keep the up-to-date version (for 0.7)
in its own branch, so that if you upgrade your site to 0.7 in the
future, it is still there for you.
Here are the steps (note that 'co' is short for 'checkout', and 'br'
for 'branch'. I have these set as aliases[1]):
# from the home directory of your radiant site:
$ git clone git://github.com/pilu/radiant-copy-move.git vendor/
extensions/copy_move
$ cd vendor/extensions/copy_move
$ git log
This gives you a list of all commits, with their commit messages and
'sha' values. Find the commit that you want to revert back to (i.e.
the commit prior to the one that breaks in 0.6.7). e.g.:
commit b7d93af32fc8fbaa97611d0697ab33f606d2eef1
Author: Andrea Franz <and...@gravityblast.com>
Date: Tue Dec 16 18:37:56 2008 +0100
the new radiant searches for regions under app/views/admin/pages
instead of the old app/views/admin/page
commit 79ee39addf4adabcf28fe77a8cb9cbf2338feda8
Merge: a904fd3... 9f3dd2a...
Author: Andrea Franz <and...@gravityblast.com>
Date: Tue Dec 16 18:33:43 2008 +0100
Merge branch 'master' of git://github.com/avonderluft/radiant-
copy-move into avonderluft/master
If commit 'b7d93a' introduces changes that break in 0.6.7, you want to
use the commit before it: '79ee39'. So check it out:
$ git co 79ee39
Note: moving to "79ee39" which isn't a local branch
If you want to create a new branch from this checkout, you may do so
(now or later) by using -b with the checkout command again. Example:
git checkout -b <new_branch_name>
HEAD is now at 79ee39a... Merge branch 'master' of git://github.com/
avonderluft/radiant-copy-move into avonderluft/master
Now when you list the branches, you should see:
$ git br
* (no branch)
master
When you checked out the old revision, you were prompted with
instructions on how to turn it into a branch of its own. Something like:
$ git co -b pre-0.7
Now, when you list branches:
$ git br
master
* pre-0.7
You can switch between your branches using `git co <branch-name>`. e.g.
$ git co master
$ git br
* master
pre-0.7
$ git co pre-0.7
$ git br
master
* pre-0.7
I hope that helps.
Cheers,
Drew
