Hi there
I tried to setup Git Flow on an empty repository and got an error message. The suggestion to create a new branch '{0}' also throws an error.
I think this is something you changed in an update, because before it worked perfectly.
I read somewhere, that this has been changed to prevent some errors.
I prefer to setup Git Flow on an empty repository and start working on the develop branch, because I don't want to commit to the master branch, before the project is ready for production.
The way it is now, I have to commit to the master branch, then setup Git Flow, which creates the develop branch based on the master and then work on the develop branch. So I have a master branch with an unstable/unfinished project.
I never had any issues with setting up Git Flow on an empty repo before. So is there a way to get this behavior back?
Thanks
Steve
I think this is your answer. I setup an empty repository yesterday. I could not 'activate' gitflow with either SmartGit or SourceTree. I created a README file in the master, committed, then the gitflow initialization worked.
heck, all you really have to do is create a .gitignore and then commit it if you don't want a README file. (or create both). The README file is useful as it comes out on Bitbucket's overview page.
I suspect this is what you have to do.
