9/25/2023 0 Comments Github desktop reddit![]() You're probably right about the reason for the downvotes. ![]() I've given exact reasoning why I defined my terms that way I did, but no one has given a better definition with sources to back up their definition.Įdit: But I do thank you for your correction to my comment above describing how files are still tracked even after an edit. I admit that I don't fully understand why people downvoted me. That wouldn't help streetwalker and other users like him. Without a good official source which defines tracked and untracked files, we can argue back and forth about what tracked files and untracked files mean and both be correct / incorrect. (I had to use deduction and a little guessing.) In short, I never found a good definition for tracked and untracked file and admitted that in my full description. Full details about why I defined the terms my particular way can be found here. The best information I found was in Git Pro, Chapter 2.2. Can you show me in the Git documentation the *exact definition* (with precise terminology) of what a tracked file and untracked file is? I never could find one. I'm always interested in making the glossary better. I think that last paragraph captures what happened, and it doesn’t have anything to do with untracking Photon. ![]() If he had installed Odin manually Without doing git add to his local repo, And I installed it to mine and it got added using the desktop app, and I then been pushed and he pulled, what should’ve happened with respect git and file tracking Odin files in our local repos? I think part of the problem lies in the fact that the rest of us are using the desktop app and it must run git add automatically, whereas it sounds like you’re saying that my colleague who runs the command line must explicitly run git add on any New files he my copy to his repo. It was at point that my colleague, the one who uses the command line, started notifying me that two of the Odin files are untracked. I think after that we installed another Unity asset package, Odin Inspector. Then we learned that the files are still tracked, so at that point we untracked them and I don’t Recall the exact command line arguments that we used.Īt that point all was good, and here I don’t recall the exact sequence of events. In our inexperience we first gitignored the package folder and its contents. So if that is the case, I think you are telling me is that at some point someone had to untrack these files that are being flagged.Īnd that everyone who uses the command line would see the same untracked flags. I mean, I thought I understood that you can have files in the repo folder that are not tracked but that for that to happen someone would have to explicit untrack a file, an in which case we'd normally also want to gitingore it. does it become tracked or untracked? (I think you are saying it automatically becomes tracked - I thought I also understood that about git and repos) ![]() If I create a new file in a project, or drag a file into the project folder. Are you refering to the repo, or the project folder that the repo allows us to share? (I think you mean the repo) When you say "The entire point is that untracked files are not added" I'm not sure what is being added to. Sorry for my lack of knowledge and inability to phase the questions properly: ![]()
