Git won't allow me to switch branches -
$git branch stable development
i have properties file has password database connection, had change properties file (say xyz.properties) password. can use on local server. , added file path .gitignore , $git update-index --assume-unchanged xyz.properties
$git status on branch stable branch up-to-date 'origin/stable'. nothing commit, working directory clean
now wanted change ...branch development $git checkout development
error: local changes following files overwritten checkout: .gitignore x/y/z/xyz.properties
please, commit changes or stash them before can switch branches. aborting
now want change branch development , make branch , work on them.
so how can achieve task...please me out. in advance
edit when tried $git stash no local changes save
note: need use local server every branch , required xyz.properties files modified because local db has different password repository.
this common problem, namely error:
error: local changes following files overwritten checkout
in short, can suggest remove files(rm) , perform checkout. otherwise also, add , stash them. forcing checkout like:
git checkout --force master
could option.
i not sure, have seen question: how make git ignore .idea files created rubymine? looks adamnyc has same problem.
