git pull 时出现 error: Your local changes to the following files would be overwritten by merge的解决办法

The most useful commands you will want to learn are

• clone
• status
• pull
• commit
• push
• gitk
• stash
• log
• checkout

% git clone ssh://antportal.com:22/var/lib/git/rndtaxcredit.gitCloning into rndtaxcredit...remote: Counting objects: 1571, done.remote: Compressing objects: 100% (1434/1434), done.remote: Total 1571 (delta 907), reused 196 (delta 88)Receiving objects: 100% (1571/1571), 4.59 MiB | 1.09 MiB/s, done.Resolving deltas: 100% (907/907), done.

Stashing when pull doesn't work

% git pull...error: Your local changes to the following files would be overwritten by merge:    webfront/app/views/Projects/index.html    webfront/app/views/main.htmlPlease, commit your changes or stash them before you can merge.

In those cases, you want to stash

% git stashSaved working directory and index state WIP on master: 11f6d51 merge changesHEAD is now at 11f6d51 merge changes

Then you pull...

rndtaxcredit/rndtaxcredit % git pull...5 files changed, 61 insertions(+), 69 deletions(-)

And finally you stash pop

% git stash pop....Dropped refs/stash@{0} (865bf3eef6b7752cff098dbf3dd20b2ffebb02f7)

git checkout is useful for switching between branches. A best practice, in conjunction with working with an issue tracker such as jira, is to create branches for each issue.

git checkout -b i777

where, issue 777 would be the issue number for this issue. This enables a convenient coupling between the name of your branches and the issues you are working on. "git checkout -b some_branch" is equivalent to the two commands "git branch some_branch" and "git checkout some_branch"
