So I'm brand spanking new to Git and development in general. I'm a Linux and Mac user on a few different machines and have a couple cloud servers with AWS, I work on small little python projects on all of them.
I'll try to explain what I want first, hopefully I'm close to having the best solution that will work for my use case. I want to be able to write code on whatever device I own, Ubuntu desktop at home, work Macbook, cloud servers, Ubuntu desktop at work, and a personal Macbook. Obviously I'm working with different hostnames and usernames, I'm the only one that works on my code.
I went through the git guide and it's working, sort of. I tried to setup my repository on my cloud server which I will also be changing code on. I've been trying to commit and push from my Macbook but have been getting a string of permission errors all day, I've been having to go back to the repo and chown -R as my ssh wheel user since every object there is getting overwritten as root.
Here are some sample error messages I'm seeing when trying to push from my macbook:
A commit:
macbook:dev macbookuser$ git commit
# On branch master
# Your branch is ahead of 'origin/master' by 6 commits.
#
nothing to commit, working directory clean
And then the push:
macbook:dev macbookuser$ git push
