Hi all,

I am a complete Noob when it comes to GIT. I have been just taking my first steps over the last few days. I setup a repo on my laptop, pulled down the Trunk from an SVN project (had some issues with branches, not got them working), but all seems ok there.

I now want to be able to pull or push from the laptop to my main desktop. The reason being the laptop is handy on the train as I spend 2 hours a day travelling and can get some good work done. But my main machine at home is great for development. So I want to be able to push / pull from the laptop to the main computer when I get home. I thought the most simple way of doing this would be to just have the code folder shared out across the LAN and do:

git clone file://192.168.10.51/code

unfortunately this doesn't seem to be working for me:

so I open a git bash cmd and type the above command, I am in C:\code (the shared folder for both machines) this is what I get back:

Initialized empty Git repository in C:/code/code/.git/
fatal: 'C:/Program Files (x86)/Git/code' does not appear to be a git repository
fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly

How can I share the repository between the two machines in the most simple of ways.

There will be other locations that will be official storage points and places where the other devs and CI server etc will pull from, this is just so that I can work on the same repo across two machines.

Thanks
