Google Code's project hosting does not officially support git. About the only thing you can do is to actually host a Subversion repository there and then access that via git-svn. However, that deprives you of many of the big advantages of git, such as useful merging and lightning-fast cloning (compared to Subversion via git-svn, anyway). I would recommend that you look for a different hosting site. Other sites offering free git hosting for open source projects include Sourceforge, github, gitorious and repo.or.cz. Some of these provide you with instructions on how to push your code to them. In any case, I think you could benefit from reading a git tutorial or two. Also, might I recommend that you create one repository per separate project you want to get hosted. It's bad organization to keep several projects in the same repository, and it's likely to bite you in the behind eventually.

You can take "official source tree" and "Git-capable server" to be your git repo that you git init-ed in your first post. But it's empty isn't it? So, just skip the "git fetch" step. That leaves: $ git svn clone ... $ cd trunk Then go on from there. -- Cheers, Ray Chuan ``` ## Bond, 2010-11-28 04:36 Subject: Re: how to git with google code Message-ID: URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/AANLkTimSdCOqC_nyLi4FsHPcJ%2BL9CnYzFK5OyQBoWUC7%40mail.gmail.com In-Reply-To: ``` On Sun, Nov 28, 2010 at 9:57 AM, Tay Ray Chuan wrote: > Hi, > You can take "official source tree" and "Git-capable server" to be > your git repo that you git init-ed in your first post.

What do I do from that is what I asked in first post of this thread? ``` ## Tay Ray Chuan, 2010-11-28 07:18 Subject: Re: how to git with google code Message-ID: URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/AANLkTi%3D1vVBiHeoYGzY%2B0Y6w7zXc3yhgZUHRH_v7ZauV%40mail.gmail.com In-Reply-To: ``` On Sun, Nov 28, 2010 at 12:36 PM, Bond wrote: > On Sun, Nov 28, 2010 at 9:57 AM, Tay Ray Chuan wrote: >> Hi, >> You can take "official source tree" and "Git-capable server" to be >> your git repo that you git init-ed in your first post.

Assuming you did $ git svn clone http://svn.googlecode/url/to/your/repo You'd have a git repo that is "linked" to the Google Code svn repo. Now go inside the git repo and do whatever you want. That was what I thought you were looking for in this thread. But if you need advice on "how to do stuff in git", (eg. adding files, commit, push), just google for a git tutorial, I'm sure there are some pretty good ones out there. -- Cheers, Ray Chuan ```
