[vtk-developers] Trouble committing to my local clone

[Cory Quammen]

Hi all,

I am running into problems while trying to commit to a branch of VTK
on my local clone. I'm running 64-bit Windows 7 and using msysgit.
After staging from files, when I try to commit, I get the message

Please initialize your local Git hooks.
Paste the following commands into a shell:

 cd "c:/dev/packages/VTK/.git/hooks"
 git init
 git pull .. remotes/origin/hooks
 cd ../..

See http://www.vtk.org/Wiki/VTK/Git#Hooks for more details.

I ran these steps, but everything seemed to be up to date:

Owner at OWNER-PC /c/dev/packages/VTK (BooleanOperations)
$ cd .git/hooks/

Owner at OWNER-PC /c/dev/packages/VTK/.git/hooks (master)
$ git init
Reinitialized existing Git repository in c:/dev/packages/VTK/.git/hooks/.git/

Owner at OWNER-PC /c/dev/packages/VTK/.git/hooks (master)
$ git pull .. remotes/origin/hooks
>From ..
 * remote-tracking branch origin/hooks -> FETCH_HEAD
Already up-to-date.

Owner at OWNER-PC /c/dev/packages/VTK/.git/hooks (master)
$ cd ../..

Owner at OWNER-PC /c/dev/packages/VTK (BooleanOperations)

+++++

Attempting to commit after running these steps failed with the original message.

Any idea what's going on?

Thanks,
Cory
