This script is able to push the source from one repository/branch to another repository/branch.

Windows

On windows you can specify file repositories with file:///\\<computer>\<path> (ex: file:///\\homepc\repos\git-backup.git).

It is always a good practice to postfix the folder with .git to indicate that this folder is a bare repository.

VS2013+ magic/pseudo variables
in the watch window or quickwatch:
"$exception": the current exception that is currently available. it has a much better debug experience in the quickwatch because it can look into the exception's type
"{num}#": eg "1#". this is a reference to an object with ObjectId. it acts as a weak-reference and does not affect the GC'ability of the object. http://blogs.msdn.com/b/zainnab/archive/2010/03/04/make-objectid-vstipdebug0015.aspx
"$ReturnValue": contains the return value from the last exited method. The autos-window contains a much better display of that. http://blogs.msdn.com/b/visualstudioalm/archive/2013/06/27/seeing-function-return-values-in-the-debugger-in-visual-studio-2013.aspx
"$user": displays the information about the current user - eg to check for permissions, impersonations, etc
"{number-variable},h": displays the variable as hex
"{number-variable},d": displays the variable as decimal/number

Unix Symbolic Link

To create a symbolic link, the syntax of the command is similar to a copy or move command: existing file first, destination file second. For example, to link the directory /export/space/common/archive to /archive for easy access, use:

ln -s /export/space/common/archive /archive

To link the runtime control script /etc/init.d/httpd to /etc/rc2.d/S77httpd, use:

cd /etc/rc2.d ln -s ../init.d/httpd S77httpd
