I revived another few months old thread because of this, since Petr> it seems the 'b' was actually a typo and we don't want to pass 'cp' this Petr> argument at all, but something different. Does cloning locally otherwise Petr> work? When I tried "local cloning", I first tried to make an empty archive with cgi-init, but it dumped me into an editor. I couldn't find a switch to turn that off. Perhaps the manpage should say "you'll be dumped in to an editor", and perhaps provide a way to pass that message with "-m". So, on a whim, I realize that it's performing an initial commit, so I try cg-init -I. And here's the result: localhost:~/Projects/Git % cg-init -I my_master defaulting to local storage area localhost:~/Projects/Git % cg-clone my_master my_slave defaulting to local storage area find: /Users/merlyn/Projects/Git/my_master: No such file or directory Hard links don't work - using copy Fetching head... cp: illegal option -- b usage: cp [-R [-H | -L | -P]] [-f | -i | -n] [-pv] src target cp [-R [-H | -L | -P]] [-f | -i | -n] [-pv] src1 ... srcN directory cg-fetch: unable to get the HEAD branch cg-clone: fetch failed So, I guess your answer is no. What is "-b" for cp. That's not on my manpage. And, after reading the manpage closer, I see my first "my_master" was created wrong. But no error message. :( So, repeating this using a subdirectory... localhost:~/Projects/Git % rm -rf .git localhost:~/Projects/Git % mkdir my_master localhost:~/Projects/Git % cd my_master localhost:..ects/Git/my_master % cg-init -I defaulting to local storage area localhost:..ects/Git/my_master % cd .. localhost:~/Projects/Git % cg-clone my_master my_slave defaulting to local storage area Hard links don't work - using copy Fetching head... cp: illegal option -- b usage: cp [-R [-H | -L | -P]] [-f | -i | -n] [-pv] src target cp [-R [-H | -L | -P]] [-f | -i | -n] [-pv] src1 ... srcN directory cg-fetch: unable to get the HEAD branch cg-clone: fetch failed Again, lots of "no" answers there. -- Randal L.
