“Git is a DevOps tool used for source code management. It is a free and open-source version control system used to handle small to very large projects efficiently. Git is used to tracking changes in the source code, enabling multiple developers to work together on non-linear development.”

Many use Github to host remote Git repositories, but you can use other hosts like: BitBucket, Gitlab, Google Cloud Source Repositories …. You can also host your own repository on your local NAS or remote server.

Will use this article for common problems I encoutered and possible solutions.

GIT PUSH FAILS (Mac M1)

Push failed in Github Desktop and using Push from the command-line. The best bet is to experiment with different git config options.

The core.compression 4 worked for me and the push went through nicely.

git config --global core.compression 0
git config --global core.compression 1
git config --global core.compression 2
git config --global core.compression 3
git config --global core.compression 4

git config --global core.compression 0

git config --global core.compression 1

git config --global core.compression 2

git config --global core.compression 3

git config --global core.compression 4

Other config option that can be tweaked are

git config --global http.postBuffer
git config --global https.postBuffer
git config --global ssh.postBuffer

git config --global http.postBuffer

git config --global https.postBuffer

git config --global ssh.postBuffer
