GIT_DISCOVERY_ACROSS_FILESYSTEM not set

问题:

I have searched and read few post but my problem is not the same as descirbed. So here's the issue: using git clone into folder under external partition of the disk works fine but all git commands fails. can't execute git status or git log... I always get error

fatal: Not a git repository (or any parent up to mount parent /home/kozi) Stopping at filesystem boundary (GIT_DISCOVERY_ACROSS_FILESYSTEM not set).

Please help me out..

Just type git init into your command line and press enter. Then run your command again, you probably were running git remote add origin [your-repository].

That should work, if it doesn't, just let me know.

回答2:

ran across this page and several like it all talking about the GIT_DISCOVERY_ACROSS_FILESYSTEM not set message. In my case our sys admin had decided that the apache2 directory needed to be on a mounted filesystem in case the disk for the server stopped working and had to get rebuilt. I found this with a simple df command:

-->  UBIk  <--:root@ns1:[/etc]
--PRODUCTION--(16:48:43)--> df -h
Filesystem                           Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
<snip>
/dev/mapper/vgraid-lvapache           63G   54M   60G   1% /etc/apache2
<snip>

To fix this I just put the following in the root user's shell (as they are the only ones who need to be looking at etckeeper revisions:

export GIT_DISCOVERY_ACROSS_FILESYSTEM=1

and all was well and good...much joy.

More notes:

-->  UBIk  <--:root@ns1:[/etc]
--PRODUCTION--(16:48:54)--> export GIT_DISCOVERY_ACROSS_FILESYSTEM=0

-->  UBIk  <--:root@ns1:[/etc]
--PRODUCTION--(16:57:35)--> git status
On branch master
nothing to commit, working tree clean

-->  UBIk  <--:root@ns1:[/etc]
--PRODUCTION--(16:57:40)--> touch apache2/me

-->  UBIk  <--:root@ns1:[/etc]
--PRODUCTION--(16:57:45)--> git status
On branch master
Untracked files:
  (use "git add <file>..." to include in what will be committed)

    apache2/me

nothing added to commit but untracked files present (use "git add" to track)

-->  UBIk  <--:root@ns1:[/etc]
--PRODUCTION--(16:57:47)--> cd apache2

-->  UBIk  <--:root@ns1:[/etc/apache2]
--PRODUCTION--(16:57:50)--> git status

Hopefully that will help someone out somewhere... -wc

For complete the accepted answer, Had the same issue. First specified the remote

git remote add origin https://github.com/XXXX/YYY.git

git fetch 

Then get the code

git pull origin master

回答4:

For android source code with repo, I beleive you should use REPO. if you really want to use git, you should know if the project has .git directory with ls -a. Or you have to enter the sub project directory which should include the .git.

回答5:

Check whether you are actually under a github repo.

So, listing of .git/ should give you results..otherwise you may be some level outside your repo.

Now, cd to your repo and you are good to go.
