Is it possible (and if so, How would I) to use this for MaNGOS-0.12 ?

I've seen so many people run into issues using "git clone" that it's getting nuts. The best way to get any of the branches is to "git init" a dir, then "git pull origin master" or replace master with the branch name. I use this way, and it works fine for me.

Okay, I'll try that.

So, can anyone tell me the command to get the mangos-0.12 branch?

I got the newest one in the list from here.

Checked on that, version is fine. Can someone just give me the command to get the mangos-0.12 branch plz? I've always used "Git clone" b4, I just wanna make a 2.4.3 compile.

Did that, got this: $ git checkout -b 243 origin/mangos-0.12 fatal: git checkout: updating paths is incompatible with switching branches. Did you intend to checkout 'origin/mangos-0.12' which can not be resolved as commit?

I know how to get the master from MaNGOS via GIT, but I would like to access the "mangos-0.12" branch, and I don't know how. The only way I've found to successfully download the master branch is to "git clone git://github.com/mangos/mangos.git" followed by where I want the files put, then after that just right-click the folder they're in, and "git bash here" followed by "git pull" Since all the branches are in "git://github.com/mangos/mangos.git" how do I specify a branch, since it assumes master if I don't? I've read through the guides, and I haven't found the command, and I can't get any syntax or command usage info from the GIT bash window. I'd prefer to learn to use the bash window, rather than install an unneeded GUI. halp?

I did the same thing, and installed a modified MySQL backend that one of my GM's came up with. Never had a problem since.

Amen to that. Happy new years, one and all!

Might want to clarify that this is 303TBC, not WotLK... Yet.

Check my sig.

There's a "Locked" field in the Reamd > account that does the same thing. As for your idea, Henhouse, I agree. I've had to jail a few characters (usually for a day or two. After the third warning, I strip their characters naked and drop them in enemy faction territory... };p ) for ninja-like tactics. Character locks are a good idea... but not as much fun.

Since there's a jumble of commands on here, I hate adding more. The basic command (from what I've learned so far) is git clone (address of git repo) (local folder to create) -OR- you can "git init" the dir yourself, and then use "git checkout". I prefer to use git clone so I can just "git bash here" then just "git pull" to update it. I have the 303-willcrashforsure branch, but it doesn't even recognize data past 2.4.x yet, nor is there a proper map extractor yet. They can't make one yet, because the info they need is in the client that hasn't been released yet. So, as impatient as we programmers are, we have to "wait"... (I hate that word.) Hang in there comrades... We can ".die" The Lich King soon enough...

How'd you get blocked from GoogleCode???
