Hello:
I recently installed Git on my Cloud EX2, but the configuration URL says N/A.
How I can configure it?
How can I use it?
Also I’m looking in the manual, but there is nothing regarding Git settings, anyone can guide me on this?
Regards

Hi, don’t know a lot about Git, but maybe other users can give you some advice.
You can use git through SSH. It is a source management program.
Thanks all,
I finally decided to configure Git through SSH.
My concern to do it through SSH, was basically due to the product warranty loss, so I just hope that in subsequent updates include a configuration tool for Git within the dashboard.
I cannot imagine that would void the warrenty, although I did not think of that.
Doesn’t the warning say something about modifying the drive’s normal functionality? Using a provided App should not cross that line.
Maybe someone in the know from WD can confirm?
Git, as an application, is just a command line tool that allows someone to clone, edit, switch branches, push, pull, merge, and show differences. I.e. it is a source control application.
To test git, via command line (ssh) just issue the command
git clone
e.g. git clone git://github.com/clinton-hall/nzbToMedia.git
Or git clone http://github.com/clinton-hall/nzbToMedia.git
Then if you cd into that directory
cd nzbToMedia
You can switch branches
git checkout dev
git branch
If you edit a file in that repository, you can see the differences with
git diff
And you can “commit” the changes
git commit -a
Finally you can merge branches
git checkout master
git merge dev
The only thing you won’t be able to test is to push changes (you need permission to the online sources) but you can issue the command and verify that you get a username and password prompt
git push

A couple of things:
So are you saying that you can only do client side git operations from the NAS command line? Can it be set up so that the NAS will act as a git server? If so, what is the best way?
