Hello all, my MD-11 recently got accepted into FGMEMBERS, and I would like to continue updating to my personal repo for now. Will the new commits transfer to the FGMEMBERS fork or no? (I'm new to GIT :lol: )

Also, I would like to edit the description, is there any way to do this??

Thanks

@i-t0uchpods
as you probably are aware, your repo "vanished". so you can't sync.
1 I advise you to "fork" from FGMEMBERS to obtain the MD-11-200NG from the FGMEMBERS backup
2. Since you are in FGMEMBERS now, you can clone the FGMEMBERS repo directly and push directly (easiest set up)
3. or if you want to keep your repo as dev, and publish updates to FGMEMBERS', then simply use

Code: Select all

git push <url-2-fgmembers-repo> master


To push/update the fgmembers repo.

that is

Code: Select all

git push https://github.com/FGMEMBERS/MD-11-200NG.git master


or 4.
Alternatively, you can sync the repos using github infrastructure, or sending a pull request, and merging yourself

IAHM-COL yeah thanks. I deleted the repo because the plane had a problem that I could not reverse, and I needed to start over :(
Is there anyway to remove that from FGMEMBERS?

yeah.
just let me know what repository will contain the correct version and I will help you generating the correct pull request that maintains all the data (and syncing)

None yet, I'm gonna bring the plane back to Alpha 0.6 Standards first, then I will put it back on GitHub. Can you remove the old fork as soon as possible please? Thanks

Thanks. If you check my private repo, You will notice Alpha 0.1, which is the first rebuild part I have completed. I will let you know when it is ready for FGMembers OK?

@IAHM-COL:
I never used git..... how is it working?
How can I get/update FGMembers?
Is it overwriting my own files (from my Huey)?
