How do you find out what changes have you made in your git branch?

sarora1 — Sat, 16 Nov 2024 04:40:33 GMT

I want to know from experienced git users that how they work with git in Talend. Do you think there is any benefit of using git in Talend other than just being a common place to share code with other developers?

How do you find out what changes have you made in your git branch?
--- Go to github.com->Your repository->Branch->ProjectName->Process Folder->You Should find your latest changes here.

Benefits of using git in Talend:
-> Code is synced across your team whenever you make any change.
-> You can restore git repo to Talend and start from where you left without losing anything in case if you have to delete talend workspace.

That's too late because you have to commit and push your changes to github. I want to figure out before I am ready to commit.

Also, there is so much noise when you review the changes in Github. These file changes dont tell me anything:

.prefs

relationship.index

.properties

.screenshots (it's all xml)

.item

There is useless info. in there. How do I tell what change developer has made?

Agreed! compared to other IDE's Talend does not provide all important features or at least it's not easily visible. I don't think (Github-Talend) has the feature to show the difference between old and new branch or as per your question what new changes were made, in which component what exact change was made in that particular branch.

But to view Git Unstaged & Staged changes window just like Eclipse will show the total number of file changes along with its names and which one you want to choose for Commit and Push. For that, maybe below links might help you.
