Git Repositories

Committers new to CVS

Before working on a git repository, please:

• Read Git for Dummies
• Note that anyone can commit to their repo, but only Eclipse committers can push their repo to git.eclipse.org
• DON'T FORGET to configure your git environment

   git config --global user.email somebody@somewhere.tld
   git config --global user.name "John Doe"

Connecting, cloning a repo

   git clone ssh://committer_id@git.eclipse.org/gitroot/project/repo

Example:

   git clone ssh://droy@git.eclipse.org/gitroot/babel/org.eclipse.babel.server.git

Committing

Before committing code to your cloned repo, you must add/commit

Creating a new repository

Eclipse committers with shell accounts can create new repositories.

   cd /gitroot/your_project
   mkdir org.eclipse.your.repo.name.git
   cd org.eclipse.your.repo.name.git
   git init --bare --shared

Git mirrors of CVS repositories

The CVS repositories at Eclipse.org are being mirrored to read-only git repositories. Please see the git repositories page for the full list of repositories.
