bin/goldberg add not adding project about goldberg HOT 6 CLOSED

The wrong message being displayed has been fixed with 312de9a.
As far as the argument not being recognised, could you tell me the version of git you're using? Basically, I want the output of the git --version command. It looks like whatever you are using doesn't support specifying the branch. With that information I'll probably suggest you to upgrade your git, but I would like to know the version of git anyway.

[deploy@li269-181 ~]$ git --version
git version 1.5.5.6

Thanks for the response. I'd say you ought to upgrade git. My version is 1.7.5.2 (through homebrew), and the current version on ubuntu is 1.7.1. I'm not sure when the --branch option was added to git, but we certainly won't be trying to be compatible with 1.5.
I'm going to close this issue. Please reopen it if you the problem persists in the later version, or if it is impossible for you to upgrade. If the latter is true we'll take a closer look to see what it would involve, but I can't promise anything.

No worries.

It might be worth updating your docs to specify the oldest version of git you do support (if the information is not already there).

from goldberg.

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. The information isn't already there, and we're hunting through the documentation of older versions of git-clone to see when the --branch might have been added.

from goldberg.

The documentation has been updated. The minimum version of git you can use 1.6.5.
