ractoc Posted February 26, 2014 Report Share Posted February 26, 2014 Hello, We are currently experimenting with Plastic to see if it can act as a better front end for our central GIT repo. While we are very happy with the features of plastic itself, there are some problems with the GIT integration. I am personally using Plastic, while a collegue is still using the tortoise front end. After his last push, my git sync lost a lot of files. Effectively a whole directory tree has vanished from my local Plastic repo. Because plastic is convinced this is actually what happened in GIT itself, there is no real way of recovering from this. Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calbzam Posted February 26, 2014 Report Share Posted February 26, 2014 Hi, Is it possible to reproduce the issue? Could you send me the git fast-export package to sync it with Plastic and check the issue? git fast-export --all -C --tag-of-filteres-object=drop --signed-tags=strip --nodata > repo.fe Regards, Carlos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ractoc Posted February 26, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2014 Unfortunately, that won't be possible. I've tried reproducing it on a test git repository, but I haven't been able to. And our main repository contains code I'm not allowed to send to third parties. For now everything works again and I'll keep plastic running alongside our current standard GIT client to check how it holds up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calbzam Posted February 26, 2014 Report Share Posted February 26, 2014 Ok, let us know if the issue happens again. Anyway, using the "--nodata" option, you can export a package without exporting the data. Regards, Carlos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
