Checkout script not working? Manual solution?

[mbria]

Probably it's me, but looks like the checkout script published here:

It's not working correctly.

Running it ends with:

Code: Select all

error: The requested URL returned error: 403
fatal: Couldn't find remote ref master


Here you have the full output:

Meanwhile, I tried to get the code directly with:
1) At github, branch OJS and PKP-LIB repos
2) Then to checkout the OJS 2.4 stable branch locally:

Code: Select all

$ git clone git@github.com:marcbria/ojs.git
$ git checkout origin/ojs-stable-2_4
$ cd lib/pkp
$ git clone git@github.com:marcbria/pkp-lib.git
$ git checkout origin/ojs-stable-2_4


Alec, do you think this is enough to get the last stable OJS release?

Thanks for your help,

Hi Marc,

Yes, those commands should work fine. We've had some trouble with different versions of git behaving differently, which might explain the trouble you're having with that script; what version are you running? (git --version)

git version 1.5.6.5
(from the repos of Debian GNU/Linux 5.0 - that is the standard gnu/Linux to install in my university)

Cheers,

Ok, let's see that remote branches are checked out, but the point now it's they are not created locally...

My local version points to (no brach) and when I push to github nobody knows what branch need to be updated... and fails (with no error :-/)
I tried to create a local branch and then push it to github, but I didn't succeed.

I recognize I'm really ashamed (and stressed) with my poor git skills, but asking is the only way I will get the translation job on time.

sorry for the annoyance,
m.

Hi Marc,

I'm no git expert myself, so my apologies if I'm not detecting something quick to fix. Could you try working through the instructions at the older version of the wiki page? These are basically what got worked into the script, but with some changes. (And please don't let the deadline cause you stress -- we really appreciate this kind of contribution and the last thing we'll do is scold you over the timing.)

Thanks,
