Now I understand all the stuff! Of course I thought that I would use 
quite a new version of git on the newest Ubuntu distro -- you are just 
somewhat used to getting updates all the times. But it seems they 
deffinitely neglect not "core" programs -- my version is 1.4.1! So 
the first time I tried every command including all that were like 
"commented" out -- and it worked. But now I got the base with this 
cogito (that is the first time to make all the git files on your local 
web/master), now git pull funktions quite well.

Didn't you Daniel also use Ubuntu? So this might be the problem with it.

I see no other reason for saying instructions are incorrect: I have
actually tested these instructions under GNU/Linux, with Git 1.4.4.2.
Do a Git expert knows why this doesn't work?

Darn, at second thought, Cogito seems to be easier to use, despite
limited portability :-/ If there is no other clean way to get you
started, you may simply fal back to Cogito...

No, "git checkout -b myweb web/master" is supposed to do this job.

Are you sure that you actually use Git 1.4.4.1 or newer? What does

git --version

says?

GIT errors?

2007-01-02 Thread Daniel Tonda Castillo
After finishing the priority 3 files which already have been sent, I 
tried to do a pull to merge everything and get the newest web site.


Locally there were no errors when committing, this seems to have 
happened after putting a different committish after the first commit.


After a bunch of errors concerning merge, I thought to start over again 
in a new directory, just to keep the original files I translated intact.


So i went to the savanah place listed on the wiki at: 
http://lilypondwiki.tuxfamily.org/index.php?title=Translations_HOWTO to 
start translating and get a fresh source. I got too many errors and gave 
up.


Here's a recap of what went on:
=
Following instructions here:

http://git.sv.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=lilypond.git;a=blob_plain;f=README;hb=web/master

$ git fetch git://git.sv.gnu.org/lilypond.git/ web/master:web/master

I do a ls -a and all I get is:

$ .
$ ..
$ .git

Shouldn't something live here besides .git?

Now the next item:


$ git checkout -b myweb web/master
fatal: ambiguous argument 'HEAD': unknown revision or path not in the 
working tree.

Use '--' to separate paths from revisions
fatal: Not a valid object name HEAD


$ git log
fatal: bad default revision 'HEAD'

So I'm stopping all git stuff because the instructions seem to be incorrect.
