In python, how do I check if an object is a generator object?

Trying this - 

    &gt;&gt;&gt; type(myobject, generator)

gives the error -

    Traceback (most recent call last):
      File &quot;&lt;stdin&gt;&quot;, line 1, in &lt;module&gt;
    NameError: name &#39;generator&#39; is not defined

(I know I can check if the object has a `next` method for it to be a generator, but I want some way using which I can determine the type of any object, not just generators.)

I have a simple form that submits text to my SQL table. The problem is that after the user submits the text, they can refresh the page and the data gets submitted again without filling the form again. I could redirect the user to another page after the text is submitted, but I want users to stay on the same page.

I remember reading something about giving each user a unique session id and comparing it with another value which solved the problem I am having but I forgot where it is.

Is it possible to know if a merge will conflict or not, without touching the working tree? I don&#39;t want to touch the working tree because I don&#39;t want to have it checked-out. That would take a long time if I want to see this information for several branches.

Can git tell me if a merge will conflict without actually merging?

I would like git to give me a list of all the files modified by one user, across all commits.

My particular use case is that I&#39;ve been involved in the i18n of a ruby on rails project, and we want to know what files have already been done and what files still need to be done. The users in question have only done work on the i18n, not on the rest of the code base. So the information should all be in git, but I&#39;m not sure how to get it out.

Can I get git to tell me all the files one user has modified?

I&#39;d like to grab a single branch (not all of them) of a remote repository and create a local tracking branch that can track further updates to that remote branch.  The other branches in the remote repository are very big, so I&#39;d like to avoid fetching them.  How do I do this?



How do I fetch only one branch of a remote Git repository?

I have `BranchA` which is 113 commits ahead of `BranchB`.

But I only want the last 10 or so commits from `BranchA` merged into `BranchB`.

Is there a way to do this?

I want to synchronize my local repository with a remote one so that my local repository becomes a 100% copy of the remote one - meaning that if certain files differ in these repositories, we override the local ones with the remote ones, and if there are files in local repositories that do not exist in the remote, the local files get removed.

Is there any way to achieve that other than by doing a fresh clone of remote repository?

Synchronizing a local Git repository with a remote one

I have a branch in git and want to figure out from what branch it originally was branched and at what commit.

Github seems to know, since when you do a pull request it usually automatically sets up what branch it should go into, but I can&#39;t figure out how to do this manually from the command line.

Let me add a concrete example:

    master -- ongoing development
    2.2    -- stable maintenance

A feature branch `feature` was created (at commit `B` below) and worked on (`B&#39;`, `C&#39;` &amp; `E&#39;`) and merged against the source branch to pick up `C` and `D`

     feature branch:    B&#39;-C&#39;-C--D--E&#39;
                       /     /       
     source branch: A--B--C--D--E-- ...

Now I want to merge `feature` back into its source, but I am not sure whether it was originally a branch off `master` or `2.2`. In order to merge the feature into the correct source, is there a programmatic way to find out if source branch is `master` or `2.2`?
