I am trying to rebase my feature branch to the latest commit of the master branch.
In the documentation I saw there is a button for rebase, but in my notebook I only see the create branch button. Any idea how to do rebase in azure databricks notebook?
Rebase button appears only when you are working on Feature branch and some new updates are pushed on master branch(default branch)
Make sure you follow both conditions as given in official documentation
The Rebase link displays if new commits are available in the parent branch.
Only rebasing on top of the default branch of the parent repository is supported.
That's really a problem with the docs caused by some internal processes. Repos doesn't support rebase functionality - it is only supported for files in Workspaces.

So I have the master branch, and another branch, lets call it 'branch2', that I am working on that is based off of the master branch. There are important changes in the current master branch that were made from someone else that I need to merge into branch2. Just wondering how to do this within visual studio or azure devops.
In VS,
open the git pane.
View the branches sub-pane.
Expand the'origin' branch
right click the master branch (under origin)
select merge master branch in origin\branch 2
under local branches right branch 2 pull latest
done
Download gitbash for windows, or install git on linux. I recommend command line rather than trying to use the VS or DevOps GUI. I prefer command line simply because I have better control over my commands and are less likely to mess things up. When things do get messed up, I can review the commands I used that led me there. Be sure to be in the root folder of your git repo when you use the commands. These are the three commands you would use:
git checkout branch2
git fetch
git pull origin master
What this is doing, you want to be in your feature branch, "Branch 2". Then you do a fetch, which pulls changes down from the server but doesn't apply them. Then when you pull origin master, you are pulling the master branch changes into your current branch.
A typical use of notes is to supplement a commit message without changing the commit itself. Notes can be shown by git log along with the original commit message (Git-notes documentation). With TortoiseGit I can create a note by Edit notes context menu, and then push this note to a remote repository by the Sync -> Push notes command. The notes then appear in the remote repository as expected.
On the other side I didn't find any possibility to fetch notes, neither with clone, nor with fetch or pull command.
What is the usual way to make sure git notes appear in every cloned repository?
Edit: I'm using TortoiseGit 2.7.0.0 and Git 2.19.2.windows.1 on Windows 10.
Notes are implemented in Git as a "normal" branch.
Therefore, you can easily fetch, pull and push it using refs/notes/commits. Just enter refs/notes/commits as local and remote branch in the fetch/pull/push dialog.
cf. https://web.archive.org/web/20180121193320/http://git-scm.com/blog/2010/08/25/notes.html and https://stackoverflow.com/a/18269026/3906760.
So I've been watching some videos from the Facebook Mobile DevCon 2013 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mLuaUtbGvEM) on youtube and every time someone explains something new he or she does a new checkout and all the new code was added to your project. So is this something like different versions of your project? How does this exactly work?
Can someone just explain roughly what a git checkout is and what is needed to set one up?
EDIT
The speaker does a git checkout on 38:49
The speaker probably has a git repository with multiple branches or tags for each stage of the demo/walk-through. git checkout is used to checkout a given branch/tag/hash and all the files will be updated in-place. Xcode will detect the files changes and refresh its editor view and Groups and Files pane.
To create this kind of thing yourself, you would develop the code and create branches at various points using a command like git branch step2, git branch step3 etc. after the latest commit that you made.
When doing the demo, you can then git checkout step3 to move to that point in your commit tree.
I have a project created for me by teacher and I have to improve it. He created a repo on Git Hub with branch for me. I'm trying to pull the project files from that branch directly to Xcode and Xcode refers to the branches that I have created which are empty, not the master one. Can't find any adequate manual for that as well... Please help...
so github uses git to manage repositories, so this question has more to do with git than with github.
Git is a distributed-repository source-control system, which means that every machine has a full copy of the repository, with all of its history and branches. This means that your local repository that you cloned from GitHub has all of the branches on it.
So, your problem is actually just that you need to switch branches locally to the branch your professor created.
In a terminal you can execute
git checkout <the-name-of-the-branch-your-teacher-created>
and that should do it. :)
Xcode is simply looking at the files in your working directory, so switching branches will update the files in Xcode as well.
For more git information check out the git book or any of the other countless git resources online!
Well using Git is fairly simple and as specified above can pull the project (either complete of specific brach and then import it.
OR
While running Xcode you can follow below steps -
Click on Check out an existing project.
Enter Repo link as shown below and hit Next.
Select the branch that you want to pull and hit Next.
Note As shown in Image Xcode version 8.2.1 is used.
After following several tutorials I was finally able to take my existing, non-Git-Repository XCode Project and get it uploaded to a repository on BitBucket. I'm completely new to git but I'd like to start working with versioning. Since I'm a complete newb I'd rather not be working with the command line all day (which is what I had to do to get the project on BitBucket).
XCode's organizer now has access to the BitBucket repository. I successfully cloned the project back to my hard drive. My question is this: From now on, will the projects be in sync with each other? I'm not familiar with the lingo, and the difference between a branch and a fork. Essentially, I uploaded a 1.0 codebase and I want to start working on 1.1. I'd like to either fork the code or branch it so that the original project remains for reference. From what it appears, when I clone to my hard disk, XCode creates a new local repository instead of saving it on BitBucket.
I'm confused, please help!
Forking is a server-side operation where you clone the repo. For BitBucket, it is generally used with Mercurial (see "Forking a Bitbucket Repository").
This isn't what you have done.
You have simply cloned your BitBucket Git repo (now that BitBucket also support Git, and not just SVN and Mercurial) into a local repo and imported it in your XCode editor.
You can check it through command-line (git remote) or in XCode (See "Version Control System with XCode 4 and Git").
Note that you need to use an https address for your BitBucket clone address for being able to push back to the BitBucket repo from your XCode-managed local repo: see "Bitbucket + XCode 4.2 + Git".
For more on the basis of Git (especially branches), you can follow first the small labs from gitimmersion.com.
What you want to do is Branch your code from your 'master' i.e. your 1.0, to a 'develop' branch i.e. your 1.1 version. This is the simplest way for you to start getting used to version control. Once you create the branch using Xcode, the project in Xcode you are working on locally will be on that branch.
As you make changes to the code on that branch, 'commit' them from Xcode, and then 'Push' them up to Bitbucket (all done from the same menu in Xcode File>Source Control>...Xcode will ask during a push which branch to send changes to so make sure you select your Develop branch.
This will keep your local copy and your remote repo in sync as you develop your code.
This chapter in the Xcode user guide helped me immensely:

How often you should do the commit and push dance will come from experience.
Good Luck.
