From: hogsolo Date: Sat, 14 Aug 2010 04:32:38 GMT Subject: Basic Git usage Message-ID: <1281760358285-5422412.post@n2.nabble.com> Hi, Im new to Git, formerly an SVN user. I have a master repo and have created a branch. I want to work in both at the same time. I want to change some files in the master, then switch to the branch ( git checkout branchname) , work on some files, then switch back to the master. However git wont let me switch back to the master until I have added, committed and pushed my files in the branch. Is this correct behavior for git? It would seem that I not be REQUIRED to check in anything I was working on before switching between branch and master, but that's the behavior I'm seeing via error messages. thanks -- View this message in context: http://git.661346.n2.nabble.com/Basic-Git-usage-tp5422412p5422412.html Sent from the git mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
