Quite possibly that is what stopped it. I believe Github is invoked when you command an update. I have no idea how it works, but it’s extremely picky about being “interfered” with.
Somebody who knows and understands it might be able to suggest a workaround.
Hi John,.. Thanks for your help,.. Yes that was the solution.
cd /var/www/emoncmsgit pull origin master // Initially this failed.. due to changed files plus extra file ( as I kept a copy of original prior to edit)
git stash list // Check if I already had anything stored
cd /var/www/emoncms/Modules/feed/engine // Not sure if required, but did a cd into changed folder
git stash //create stash
cd ../../..git pull origin master
cd /var/www/emoncms/Modules/feed/engine // ran no problem all files seem to update
git stash apply // applied edit from stash.. yes seems to work.
did ‘full update’ from admin… now we have some ‘action’ and files have up dated, and show as latest revision
Yes Indeed John,.. but I would never have found Tystan’s ‘fix’ if you had not pointed this out to me.
But this just goes to show the ‘power of community’,.. when there is great support in the ‘office’ from Trystan, Glyn, and the team, who make it all work… for the rest of us mere mortals,.
