Permission denied during rebase about git-cc HOT 4 CLOSED

Also, doesn't this capability (see link below) make it so you can pull specific versions (even deleted ones) directly? http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7204929/get-specific-version-of-unloaded-file-with-cleartool/7205294#7205294

Hi Guy,

So I might be mistaken but are you running git-cc in the Clearcase directory? That would explain what you're suggesting regarding deleting files in UCM (and yes that's true if you use Clearcase-integrated explorer, but not if you use raw 'rm').

Instead you need to run git-cc in a completely separate directory in your filesystem (ie c:/gitview/myapp). You only need to pass your Clearcase directory to 'git-cc init' as an argument.

To avoid having to wait for lshistory to run again (which can be bloody slow), you can use the 'backup' of the last run by running the following. The '.git/lshistory.bak' file should be in the "G:/myapp" directory - don't lose it. :)

gitcc rebase -load=.git/lshistory.bak

Let me know how you go.

I figured that out shortly after my post... I suspected it needed to be in a separate folder, but then I kept getting errors the first few times I tried it about not being able to rebase the integration stream. Now that I created a GIT child stream, life is good.

Question, can I still use load even if I change the branch list in the GITCC config?

Hi Guy,

The branch list just filters what's is loaded from lshistory.bak; it doesn't affect the lshistory command that was run. So yes it should be fine.
