I have a problem with Gitlens extension. Firstly, Gitlens or Git History extension is working fine on any other project except the this Laravel project. My problem is, can`t see the file history or line history in this project.
On the other hand, there is no problem in the git log (Git History Extension) as seen in screenshot;
But I can't compare any files with their any version (every commit seems like in the ss). I have no idea what the problem is about.
Lastly, I don't think the problem is about extension settings because other projects do not have this problem. Is there a any chance to fix this issue without resetting git history?
I am answering after 3 months, maybe it works for someone. As I mentioned in the title, surely there is no problem about extension settings for this specific project. The problem is just about git files. Maybe, I damaged some git files while moving the project on my desktop :)
So, there is no chance to fix this issue without resetting git history or starting fresh with git, if you`re having the same problem.
Do not play with git files, it`s no joke!
I've got a similar issue. My problem is in using symbolic links for folders.
I have this folder symlink for my repos.
C:\>dir
Directory of C:\
27.09.2018 21:07 <JUNCTION> repos [C:\Users\Qwerty\repos]
(GitLens v11)
The top editor is opened via C:\repos
The bottom editor via C:\Users\Qwerty\repos
You can see that some git features still work (yellow), but others don't.
However, this is very strange, because in my other repos, I have never observed such issues.
Also notice below that it is still possible to invoke the same action via a git lens popup and then it is possible to use the Prev Next Revision buttons.
Anyway, after more testing, I actually observe the same thing in my other repos. I assume that something must have changed between versions as I only observe these issues for last maybe 2-3 months. I even submitted a ticket that GitLens stopped working in v12.0.0 and later versions https://github.com/gitkraken/vscode-gitlens/issues/1979
The buttons completely disappeared and even the commit information
v11
v12
And Now actually, after having reopened my repo via original path and after updating GitLens back to v12.0.6 I see that it is working properly!
Bottom editor is opened via C:\repos symlink.

I normally create new branches from master for different JIRA tasks and them merge them back into master with pull requests when the task is completed.
However, I'm using Rstudio and always have a local script open which acts a a rolling cookbook of tricks and tips to look back on. Basically its a library of my R knowledge.
Unfortunately I believe I've lost a couple of weeks work on this file as I think dropped any changes from the master branch, then created a new branch, created/edited a different file and merged back into master for a separate task.
I'm on Windows 10 and restore previous version doesn't seem to be available. The last restore point is a day after the last pull request I had merged. Im trying to find a way to find any other version of this file either in Git or older versions on my machine.
Whats the best way or tools to do this. I've lost some changes to an algorithm I'd been working on which successfully turned a 6 hour job into a 10 min job and I don't want to try and remember how I did it. I'm using visual studio for Git and I've got Git tortoise. According to tortoise There was a merge on 19/04 and nothing before 09/02 so I don't think Git ever staged or committed the changes I've lost that were all written between the 16/04 and 20/04.
EDIT
I think I've found it. Although its not in my Rstudio history in the UI (or the history file opened in notepad), when I use the search function in Rstudio's history it finds it?! Rstudio apparently has everything I've ever written and its timestamped too.
Still keeping this question open for future issues (although I've made this file local now to avoid this in the future). If anyone knows where the 'master' history file for Rstudio too thats of interest.
As mentioned in How to access the script/source history in RStudio?
RStudio's source panel is essentially a view to an Ace Editor
You have found the "searching history" which allows you to find back all past files/commands.
I am using SourceTree as a git client.
A while ago, I had a major problem with my project and my git, so I had to reactivate a copy of my workspace from an external source. For that purpose I had created a complete new repository. Commiting to that now.
Today I've noticed, that most of my files appear as "modified" in Xcode. Even after commit and push (with SourceTree).
Source Control shows my two branches, what is correct:
And the History shows perfectly all the commits:
My feeling tells me, that in the background the old repository information is still present and does this bug. How do I handle this? Help is very appreciated.
Edit:
git diff --ws-error-highlight=new,old Output
Close Xcode. If you can avoid it, don't reopen Xcode :-) If it's an absolute must, reopen Xcode. The M markers should be gone.
This worked for me:
Delete derived data folder(Steps: Click Xcode on top left -> Preferences -> Locations -> Click on the right arrow below Derived Data and that will you take you to the Derived Data folder in Finder. Delete it)
Quit Xcode (Don't just close the project)
Reopen Xcode
Check if the nature of the diff is related to eol (end of lines).
See "git diff - show me line ending changes?", like:
git diff --ws-error-highlight=new,old
If that is the case, try first:
git config --global core.autocrlf false
Then try again to clone your repo, and see if XCode still display those differences.
In your case, this is not about eol, but about an update done in your files.
Check for any .gitattributes file: is there a smudge directive in those files (which would explain an automatic process taking place on checkout)
See Keyword expansion for an example of smudge script.
Something seems to update JTAppleCalendar to its latest relase (6.0.1 from 7 days ago)
My feeling tells me, that in the background the old repository information is still present and does this bug.
Simply try, in command-line, to clone again that repo (in a brand new local path) and check if the issue persists in that new cloned repo.
to the JTAppleCalendar, I have changed from 6.0.0 to 6.0.1 manually. around 7 days ago. when the new xcode 8.0.1 arrived
In that case, all those files should be listed as modified: that is what Git does.
Been googling for a while with no luck.
I have been working on my app for a week and I'm trying to commit to git now, so I can start branching and try some new stuff. But I can't commit my changes. I get the following message:
"The working copy "APP NAME" failed to commit files.
fatal: Could not switch to '/Users/Leonne/Documents/iOS Projects/APP NAME/APP NAME/Resources': No such file or directory"
I have initialized the git repository. I don't understand what could be going on.
Before, I did create a "Resources" folder, but deleted it afterwards. I never committed with the existence of this "Resources" folder. I deleted the Resources folder because it was giving me troubles whenever I tried to compile my app. I'm working with XCode 4.4.
Any help will be appreciated.
Ok, I just experienced this problem today morning. I don't know if mine is THE perfect fix. My Mac crashed and I restarted, and I could commit again.
If my fix hold true with you as well, then it could be a bug with XCode.
Edited
It seem my error still exists and the following is my fix.
It seem Xcode GUI have some problem with using GIT properly. So i used the terminal to do this. I went to the working directory and then did a git status this will show you a list of files that were deleted/modified/added. You can manually add them all together using git add or just a straight git commit -a (not recommended on complex projects)
This solved the commit issues and when i went to Xcode, the error doesn't seem to exists anymore
Looks like I have the bad habit of solving my hour-long problems 5 minutes after I post about them on StackOverflow, haha.
My fix was rather easy. I navigated to the specified route and re created the Resources folder. I added the folder to my project via XCode's "add files" feature. Directly afterwards I deleted it from there, moving it to trash. Now I can compile and commit, thank goodness.
So, I am working on a project with XCode. Happily, I found out that it keeps an Git repository within every project. So, after a mistake on a code, i just used
git checkout aux.c
to move back from theses mistakes. Unfortunately, as i just found out, Xcode does not auto-commit, so, I ended up with a blank file.
I didn't commited anything after this, but still can't figure out how to undo this checkout.
Sorry, you can't. :-( You're going to have to replace the file some other way.
There are two places where git tracks your files - commits, and the index/staging area. Since there was no commit, and you checked the version of the file out of the staging area, there's no other place it would be.
Do run git status just in case, to make sure it doesn't still show staged changes to that file.
Any chance you had it open in an editor still and could undo the changes to the file that git checkout made? Some editors like Textmate and SublimeText will allow that; others don't.
If the file has never been committed to the repository then unfortunately you are out of luck.
From the sounds of it, you simply have an empty git repository, which will mean your file has been lost and something Versions (which comes with Lion) or Time Machine may be your best bet at recovering from your mistake.
To confirm if anything has been committed to the repository, use git log. If you get an empty response then you're out of luck on the git front.
Unfortunately, this probably this isn't the answer you were looking for.
In fact, undoing a first commit on git is impossible. So, if you are running Xcode, commit manually frequently.
But, there is another way.
If you are running OS X 10.7 Lion or latter (not sure about Snow Leopard), you can try to use the versions feature from OS X to recover any file. Too late for me, but it should work
Best way to recover if your uncommitted changes would be to go to (Left Pane) Source Control Navigator -> Stashed Changes -> Look for a file which dated/timed earlier than your commit which you would like to reverse and click to apply stash changes to the file. That would bring back all the unsaved files back.
In showing a colleague how to use SVN yesterday, we created a test folder and file within our existing Visual Studio Solution. We'll call it "Test" folder with two files, "Test.ascx" and "Test.ascx.cs". We added it (or Visual SVN added it, 'cos it's awesome), and committed it. We also added and committed other files elsewhere in the project.
We can see it in the repository (and the other files).
Doing an update on my own machine to pull down these new files resulted in the other files being pulled down correctly, BUT the Test folder does not appear. No matter how many times I try Updating from various points in VS and in TortoiseSVN (urgh) Repo browser, it can't see that there are any changes to pull down.
Where am I going wrong?
This is a known problem.
You can use
$ svn update --depth=infinity
to force the update. With TortoiseSVN, use the "Update to revision" command in the Submenu, then change the depth combobox to "fully recursive".
I've had ghost errors like this before and found the easiest work around is to delete the parent folder and update it's parent:
Project Root
Project
NewFolder
Delete Project, then Update Project Root
We can see it in the repository (and the other files).
...
No matter how many times I try Updating from various points in VS and in TortoiseSVN (urgh) Repo browser, it can't see that there are any changes to pull down.
So you can or cannot see it in the repository browser?
Did you commit and update the parent folder of your Test folder?
I don't know, svn is always telling me to clean, did you try that?
It's not an answer, I know, but I have tried all the solutions you guys have kindly suggested and I just end up with conflicts, crashed TortoiseSVN and built up Karma. Therefore, a trusty edit in the .svn/entries file sorted it.
I have until now been a single developer using SVN just to manage my source code. Other people don't have problems, and I just check in stuff. I use Visual SVN as a layer to frig SVN for .NET (which it isn't great with) and I seem to constantly run into issues. I am performing very simple operations, not even branching/tagging. Simple simple simple. And yet I have issues with it?
