I tried upgrading pip when prompted to do so: sudo pip install –upgrade pip This worked, but removed the system install in /usr/bin/pip and replaced it with /usr/local/bin/pip – NOT GOOD! The solution is as follows:
|
|
/usr/local/bin/pip uninstall pip yum remove python27-pip yum install python27-pip |

First, get on the branch that you know already has the commits you are looking for:
|

git checkout theBranch-1234 |
Copy-and-paste the commit(s) you want:
~or~
Optionally, display the code changes for a visual confirmation:
|
|
git show {one or more commit ID's} |
Finally, extract the list of branches that contain the desired commits:
|
|
git branch --contains CommitID-A git branch --contains CommitID-B |
Example:
|
|
git log git branch --contains 097e1859f248a7aa5e148a2a946be3e360030095 git branch --contains 24339549f9f1920a33f721d3faa2538c8ba5d249 |

theUser@theHost$ git remote -v origin git@localhost:/volumes/data/git/thePlugin.git (fetch) origin git@localhost:/volumes/data/git/thePlugin.git (push) |

If you are unable to update a plugin via the WP admin console, then you can do the update manually. Download the zip file to your local hard drive and extract it. Then, from the command line, do the test run first:
|
|
cd {extracted_plugin_directory} rsync -av --dry-run --delete ../{extracted_plugin_directory}/ theHost:/volumes/www/theSite/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/{extracted_plugin_directory}/ |
*Make sure to use the trailing slashes with rsync for proper operation […]
