[lt-commander-data]

Hi,

I know how to work with cvs and svn but I'm new to git.

I was able to checkout OpenPLi and build the first image.

 

Now my next question is how do I checkout latest changes from git repo ? In cvs it would be "cvs update".

After googling, reading and doing some trials I looks like I broke the local copy.

 

Can you help me on how to checkout/follow the updates on the repository ?

Is it possible to bring the local working copy to a defined state again ?

 

thanks

git pull

and to undo local changes (similar to svn revert):

git reset --hard HEAD

So I need to change into the directory openpli-openpli-oe-core; execute the git command and all directories will be checked recursively, right ?

I received a message that everything would be up to date. Checking the log file on sourceforge I saw that a merge was done during the last days.

So I thought that there some files would be updated.

there are git submodules as well, to update those, best use the make target:

make update

(or manually: git submodule update)

Google can find a lot of good git howtos
