So if we combine your hidden statistics and your configurable error messages, one day I might see something like the following:

fatal: protocol error: expected sha/ref, got '
*********'

You can't push to git://github.com/user/repo.git
Use git@github.com:user/repo.git

This is the 13th time you have made this error. 
You are now ranked: A tool.

*********'

@drnic Who told you we were planning that?

Wow!

So now we need new categories on Working with Rails:

• Most Cloned
• Biggest Tool According to Github

We already have a “Biggest Tool” award, but I don’t think the winners’ names will be leaving our Campfire.

Awesome! Github itself is an awesome humane interface on top of git (whose cli ui leaves a lot to be desired from a usability standpoint). Fixing up the daemon to be more humane is the missing key. Major kudos.

If you found this page because you were googling for the error above, you can fix it by editing the url field in .git/config to what the error message says: git@github.com:user/repo.git.

I am a newbie to git, I installed git on my windows using Cygwin, and successfuly uploaded git files to git hub repository. Now when I try to do the same, with other windows machine, it gives me the errror you mentioned above Here are my commands >git config — user.email ‘mark@gmail.com’ > git add HELLO > git commit – m ‘second commit’ >git status //shows the status as clean >git remote add origin git@github.com:mark/website.git falta : remote origin already exists >git push origin master // And I get the following error fatal: protocol error: expected sha/ref, got ’ *********’ You can’t push to git://github.com/user/repo.git Use git@github.com:user/repo.git

I have created the public key and added to the github, but using the same userName and email in global config, is that the error or some else.

Thanks in advance

Try: > git remote rm origin > git remote add origin git@github.com:username/project.git

I got some errors in output when I did the ‘rm’ and then later when I did the push, but it seemed to work anyway

> fatal: protocol error: expected sha/ref, got ‘

The following error is caused by wrong repository cloning. On your project page there are two links, one is public and the other one is for contributors: Public Clone URL: git://github.com/xxx/yyy.git Your Clone URL: git@github.com:xxx/yyy.git So use the second one.

I appreciate the Comments.... I will admit to being a "cookbook" git user .... look up commands for what I want to do... But using git too infrequently to master all the kinks and turns...

I ran into this error. And I searched to find how to deal with it.

I found the original article really ... funny? Is that the word? .... since he managed to insult those new to git who get this error message, implying that they [a group that includes myself] are tools, as they [like myself] thrash about with this error without understanding what it suggests. And yet the author never bothers to actually explain what they [again, including myself] are supposed to do about it.

Seriously.

What a tool (and I don't mean us newbie users....)

Thankfully, those that comment are not so blind as to why people might end up here, and provided the little hints required to properly use the information provided by the message to solve the problem, i.e. "editing the url field in .git/config " as jwinter pointed out.

Opps. The "tool" guy was the first commenter.... my mistake. However, criticism that that the article lacks any description of what to do, but rather concentrates on describing the implementation details of the problem still stands.

With the growing popularity of dynamic languages such as Lisp, Python dedicated server, and the .NET Framework’s upcoming release of its Dynamic Language Runtime (DLR), we’re taking another step of neoteny. Instead of a compiler generating instruction byte codes, a “compiler for any dynamic language implemented on top of the DLR has to generate DLR abstract trees, and hand it over to the DLR libraries” (per Wikipedia). These abstract syntax trees (AST), normally an intermediate artifact created deep within the bowels of a traditional compiler online marketing (and eventually discarded), are now persisted as compiler output.

@brondsem You are right
$ git remote rm origin $ git remote add origin git@github.com:username/project.git I did and i am successfully pushing it .
Its great man .
@mojombo Please edit the post and add this as one solution . Thanks

The federal government of Brazil is well known for its support for Linux.News of the Russian military creating their own Linux distribution has also surfaced.Indian state of Kerala has gone so far as to make it mandatory for all state high schools to run Linux on their computers online associate Degree AND online Bachelor Degree

We also need it so that we can distinguish and log first-time clones of repos. Keep an eye out (down the road) for statistics that show you exactly how many times your public repo has been cloned! doctoral degree AND online Master Degree AND distance learning university

I never used a public repo because it is easy to be cloned. Just don't want to pay money for such risks. It is easy to get cloned, and I would better hire someone to do it, lol. free classifieds |part time jobs |bathroom vanity
