To clone repo *foo.git* with branch *bar* do:

    git clone --depth 1 https://path/to/repo/foo.git -b bar

I am using rxjava in my Android app to handle network requests asynchronously. Now I would like to retry a failed network request only after a certain time has passed.

Is there any way to use retry() on an Observable but to retry only after a certain delay?

Is there a way to let the Observable know that is is currently being retried (as opposed to tried for the first time)?

I had a look at debounce()/throttleWithTimeout() but they seem to be doing something different.

**Edit:**

I think I found one way to do it, but I&#39;d be interested in either confirmation that this is the correct way to do it or for other, better ways.

What I am doing is this: In the call() method of my Observable.OnSubscribe, before I call the Subscribers onError() method, I simply let the Thread sleep for the desired amount of time. So, to retry every 1000 milliseconds, I do something like this:

    @Override
    public void call(Subscriber&lt;? super List&lt;ProductNode&gt;&gt; subscriber) {
	    try {
		    Log.d(TAG, &quot;trying to load all products with pid: &quot; + pid);
		    subscriber.onNext(productClient.getProductNodesForParentId(pid));
		    subscriber.onCompleted();
	    } catch (Exception e) {
		    try {
			    Thread.sleep(1000);
		    } catch (InterruptedException e1) {
			    e.printStackTrace();
		    }
		    subscriber.onError(e);
	    }
    }

Since this method is running on an IO thread anyway it does not block the UI. The only problem I can see is that even the first error is reported with delay so the delay is there even if there&#39;s no retry(). I&#39;d like it better if the delay wasn&#39;t applied *after* an error but instead *before* a retry (but not before the first try, obviously).

I have been using git for a while now, but I have never had to set up a new remote repo myself and I have been curious on doing so. I have been reading tutorials and I am confused on how to get &quot;git push&quot; to work. 

If I simply use `git push` it asks me to see up a default branch(?) to point to? What is the difference between these two options it supplies me with?

    git config --global push.default matching
    git config --global push.default simple

Matching just pushes whatever branches I have on my local repo, and if they don&#39;t match I have to then manually tell it to push whatever new local branches I have, correct? Is this best practice to use or is simple best?

I did `git rebase master`, fixed the conflicts reported in a file, and then `git add` the file to resolve the conflict.  Then I did `git rebase --continue`, and got this:

&gt; Applying: Fixed unit test
&gt;
&gt; No changes - did you forget to use &#39;git
&gt; add&#39;? If there is nothing left to stage, chances are that something
&gt; else already introduced the same changes; you might want to skip this
&gt; patch.
&gt; 
&gt; When you have resolved this problem, run &quot;git rebase --continue&quot;. If
&gt; you prefer to skip this patch, run &quot;git rebase --skip&quot; instead. To
&gt; check out the original branch and stop rebasing, run &quot;git rebase
&gt; --abort&quot;.

Any idea what I am missing here? Should I do git rebase --skip?

git rebase --continue won&#39;t work

I have an app on Heroku that is running old code.  I&#39;ve made a small change and committed the change.  I then ran

    git push heroku master

It&#39;ll say

    Fetching repository, done.
    Everything up-to-date

But if I go and look at the app, it&#39;s all old code.  I did revert the site back to another version in Heroku about 15 days ago, but pushed updates to it since then and they worked.

Why is heroku not getting the most current files from my github repository?  Is there a way to just reset the app and push the files from github again?  I have production data in the database so I do NOT want to touch it.

Thanks in advance!!

git push heroku master says &quot;Everything up-to-date&quot;, but the app is not current

`Jenkins` has the `Gerrit` Plugin in place so that when we do check-ins to `Gerrit`, `Jenkins` performs a build and if it succeeds, then the modification in `Gerrit` is verified.  If the build fails then it is not.  My understanding is that this is accomplished through jobs set up in `Jenkins`.  We have now created a new branch (`git`) and I guess I need to clone the existing jobs pointing to the other branch so that this same workflow occurs and builds are performed on every commit.  Can somebody explain how I would clone these jobs? I don&#39;t seem to see a way to do it through the UI nor can I even see a way to list the jobs out through the UI.

I have GitLab &amp; GitLab CI set up to host and test some of my private repos. For my composer modules under this system, I have Satis set up to resolve my private packages.

Obviously these private packages require an ssh key to clone them, and I have this working in the terminal - I can run composer install and get these packages, so long as I have the key added with `ssh-add` in the shell.

However, when running my tests in GitLab CI, if a project has any of these dependencies the tests will not complete as my GitLab instance needs authentication to get the deps (obviously), and the test fails saying `Host key verification failed`.

My question is how do I set this up so that when the runner runs the test it can authenticate to gitlab without a password? I have tried putting a password-less ssh-key in my runners `~/.ssh` folder, however the build wont even add the key, &quot;eval `ssh-agent -s`&quot; followed by ssh-add seems to fail saying the agent isn&#39;t running...

What is the difference between these three terms? My university provides the following definitions:

**Continuous Integration** basically just means that the developer&#39;s working copies are synchronized with a shared mainline several times a day.

**Continuous Delivery** is described as the logical evolution of continuous integration: Always be able to put a product into production!

**Continuous Deployment** is described as the logical next step after continuous delivery: Automatically deploy the product into production whenever it passes QA!

They also provide a warning: Sometimes the term &quot;Continuous Deployment&quot; is also used if you are able to continuously deploy to the test system.

All this leaves me confused. Any explaination that is a little more detailed (or comes with an example) is appreciated!

Alright, lets say one day we make happen to make a bunch of modifications and when we go to commit them we notice we were working on the wrong branch.

How can we force git to switch branches **without discarding local changes**.

I&#39;m probably going to go about this in a naive way while I wait a reply, but I would like to know if theres a correct procedure as I&#39;d be lying if I said this hasn&#39;t happened to me before...

 - Backup changed repo
 - `git reset --hard`
 - `git checkout right-branch`
 - Restore changes
 - `git commit -m &quot;changes&quot;`


git switch branch without discarding local changes

I am getting this message:

     First, rewinding head to replay your work on top of it...

each time I do a `git pull --rebase origin &lt;branch&gt;`, however I would like to discard all my work that may be replayed on top of it.. Basically I would like to rebase only the origin branch without my work on top of it.
How can I clean those commits that comes up wrongly all times I try to pull rebase?
Again, my goal is just pull rebase the exact snapshot of the origin branch without my work on top of it.
Thanks in advance.




Git: First rewinding head to replay

I want to create a branch from an existing remote branch (let&#39;s say remote-A) and then commit the changes to the repository.

I have used the below commands to create a local branch from the existing remote-A

    $git checkout remote-A

    git branch
    master
    * remote-A

Now I have created local-B from Remote A using the below commands

    git branch local-B
    git checkout local-B

How do I make sure the changes I have on local-B are on top of remote-A so that when I push local-B to the remote repo, the changes are on top of remote-A?



How to create a local branch from an existing remote branch?

I am new to git. I have a very simple scenario for using git. I had my first release written with Android Studio. Now I want to work with some new features. What I did so far:

 1. enabled the VCS in my Android Studio 
 2. created a local repository for my project from Android Studio
 3. pushed my local repository to my Bitbucket remote repository (`$git push -u origin master`)

Now I am confused for the next step: create a feature branch. Should I create a branch in the local repository: 

    $ git branch --track feature1 origin/master 

or should I create a new branch from the Bitbucket web portal, and clone the new branch?

I also want to know how I can switch branches with Android Studio? For example, switch from feature branch to master branch to work on some hotfix. Do I need to use the Bitbucket plugin to checkout the project very time from the remote repository every time I switch branches or I can hot switch it inside Android Studio?

Thanks!

How to use git branch with Android Studio

In a recent question I made, one of the [answers][1] pointed to another answer in another question where a way to explore the forks and clones of a public Github repo was shared.

I went ahead and did that with my own public repo and came up with this information in the `Git clones` section under the `Traffic` tab in the _Graphs_ section:

![enter image description here][2]


I&#39;m not really sure I understand what this information means. Are there 6 clones of the repo in total with 4 of them made on the 09/08? Did only 3 unique cloners cloned it?, in which case, does that mean they cloned it more than once? Do those numbers include myself and any clones I might have made in different systems (ie: home PC, work PC, laptop, etc)? Any help is much appreciated.

Explain clones info in Github&#39;s Traffic tab

I have to clone a couple of big repos in my Dockerfile. It really can take an hour to clone a single repo and I want to see standard Git progress output to understand what&#39;s going on.

However, when Git is started from the Dockerfile, I see no git clone output whatsoever. The only thing printed to console is:

    Cloning into &#39;/root/lib/opencv&#39;...
    POST git-upload-pack (gzip 2052 to 1062 bytes)

and then just a silence. While, usually, I expect something like this:

    Cloning into &#39;opencv&#39;...
    POST git-upload-pack (gzip 2040 to 1052 bytes)
    remote: Counting objects: 158365, done.

Git clone verbose output?

When doing a shallow clone in git (using the `--depth` option), the root commit is marked as *grafted*.

![enter image description here][1]

Googling didn&#39;t lead to any satisfacting documentation.

It doesn&#39;t seem to have anything to do with [git grafts](https://git.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/GraftPoint), which the similar terminology would imply.  
Is it just a flag to signal that this commit actually has more parents and isn&#39;t the &quot;real&quot; root commit? Or is there something more special about it?

Note that using **`--depth=1`** parameter [prevents][1] you from **pushing the project to a new repository**.

How to clone seed/kick-start project without the whole history?

After cloning a remote repository it does not show any remote branch by -a option. What could be the problem? How to debug it? In this snippet two of the remote branches are not shown: 

    $ git clone --depth 1 git://git.savannah.gnu.org/pythonwebkit.git
    $ cd pythonwebkit
    $ git branch -a
    * master
      remotes/origin/HEAD -&gt; origin/master
      remotes/origin/master
    $ git --version
    git version 1.8.3.1

Tried the same command on another machine, it works well: 

    $ git clone --depth 1 git://git.savannah.gnu.org/pythonwebkit.git
    Receiving objects: 100% (186886/186886), 818.91 MiB | 3.44 MiB/s, done.
    $ cd pythonwebkit/
    $ git branch -a
    * master
      remotes/origin/HEAD -&gt; origin/master
      remotes/origin/debian
      remotes/origin/master
      remotes/origin/python_codegen
    $ git --version
    git version 1.7.1

Tried also cloning another repo, it works well. Though I can try it on this machine again, but it would be better to know what&#39;s wrong. 

Any suggestions or hints will be more than welcome. 

Edit: Answer summary: Since git version 1.8.3.2 the &quot;--depth&quot; and &quot;--no-single-branch&quot; need to be used together to get the same behavior as before. This is deemed a bug fix. 


git shallow clone (clone --depth) misses remote branches

Is it possible to shallow clone a specific commit in a repository, i.e. with depth 1? Something like

    git clone http://myrepo.git 728a4d --depth 1

to get the repository state as it is at the commit with SHA `728a4d...`?

The motivation is to avoid having to clone the whole repository, then check out that specific commit, when we&#39;re only interested in the state of the repository at that specific commit.
