I am unable to commit files in GitKraken after staging as the "Commit" button just doesn't respond. Also, whenever I try to merge a branch (most cases it's master) I get an error saying "Signature Author Required". Yet, I am able to do everything in the command line. I've attempted to reach out to Axosoft but since I'm using the free version it seems unlikely that I'll get any response. I've also tried uninstalling and re-installing the program but to no avail. Thank you in advance for the help.

I have a git repository in which I work in collaboration with some people but I cannot sync anymore. I am using the GitHub Windows client application on Windows 7:
Last time I synced, the operation succeeded and I ended up with a perfect copy of the latest code.
Next, I made some simple changes to a few files, but did not commit anything yet.
In the meantime, someone else made changes to some other files.
In order to see the changes of the repository, I'm trying to sync again.
GitHub client reports "Sync failed".
Now I am wondering if this is normal behavior or if there is something wrong with my repository ? Shouldn't I be able to sync the repository and get latest files even though I am making some changes that are still not committed ?
Thanks.
When you got this kind of error just try to open a git shell and type git status into your working directory. You will have some infos that could help you like which files are in conflict.
It must be one of the other collaborators that updated and pushed a file you just updated. If so, you will have to choose which version you want to keep in your local files.
When I try to switch to the master branch in eclipse, I get an error:
Branch failed
Cannot lock /home/pal/workspace/pal-prod/.git/index
Any ideas what causes this? I'm having trouble searching for that error (nothing similar came up).
I'm not sure if my VM has size issues, or why it can't lock that.
I am currently in branch Bom. Eclipse says pal-prod [pal-prod Bom up arror 2] in the Project Explorer. I recently pushed changes through the linux command line since I have been having error messages in eclipse when I try to push, commit, etc.
Thanks,
Mich
Read this issue and try the solution if the problem description is the same as your :
Solution is to delete index.lock if it exist (when eclipse is shutdown and no other process interact with the repo)
.lock files are created when a process use the repository, so my guess would be that a .lock file wasn't deleted properly and Egit still think it's busy.
A developer and I were working on using .gitignore to add some conditions to the C# projects and solutions we were committing, since he previously encountered an issue of being unable to commit as a result of us committing binaries (such as .suo) to Github as well, which caused conflicts.
We fixed that issue of the .gitignore, now it ignores a number of conditions. However, when I went back to my computer, I am currently getting the DETACHED HEAD error. I did a git status, and the command line has been giving me these messages.
I am unsure how to solve this issue. I was wondering what I can/should do so I can go back to Master and commit/sync my changes?
Also, how do I prevent this issue in the future?

I was in rebase, so I ran git rebase --abort to get out of that.
Afterwards I was back in master, which allowed me to commit again.
Using EGit with Eclipse when I try to push my code into the remote repository I get an error message saying that I should pull first, as shown in Figure 1.
When I then try to pull from the remote repository I get a message saying that everything is up to date, as shown in Figure 2.
How do I fix this problem?
Make sure that:
you are using the latest version of EGit (2.3+)
you have stashed/commit everything before pulling (as in this thread)
you are not in a detached head mode (as in "can't push upstream using EGit")
The OP Krige adds:
in the end I noticed a class file was mentioned in the DIRTY_WORKTREE error message.
I deleted that file from the file system, did a pull, resolved the conflicts and pushed.
Everything seems to work fine now.
If you have the DIRTY_WORKTREE issue and you are not able to delete the file (for whatever reasons), you should do a pull, or replace with HEAD and then add to Index. This will resolve the conflicts (assuming use of the merge tool) and you should then be able to commit/push your changes, or else pull again.
[SOLVED] Somehow, I managed to not have "write" permissions to the .git directory. So was trying to write the commit and getting bounced.
I've been using Eclipse for a few months, but had been just running git from the CLI. I decided that was inefficient and that I wanted to use eGit, so I started following this tutorial (http://www.slideshare.net/loianeg/using-the-egit-eclipse-plugin-with-git-hub-2578587?from=embed).
I'm trying to add an existing project, so I did Team-->Share Project-->Git and selected the .git corresponding to my project. Eclipse seems to have picked it up, okay, but when I try to commit, I get a popup saying
"Committing changes has encountered a problem' -- an internal error occured.
When I click details, it say "An internal error occurred
Exception caught during execution of commit command"
...I don't even know where to start on this one. I googled the error and didn't get anything useful.
Anyone know how to fix this, or at least how to start debugging?
I've solved my case removing index.lock file from the git folder of the project.
start debugging?
Check the "Errors" Eclipse view for a full Stack Trace associate with that error message
Example of an Error View:
fix it?
If the Exception is a NPE one (NullPointerException), like shown in bug 329611, then you can try a git commit -m "a message" in a shell, in order to get past that initial first commit with a GUI.
As the OP rogueleaderr mentions, the error view and the exact stack trace behind the exception was enough:
Somehow, I managed to not have "write" permissions to the .git directory.
So was trying to write the commit and getting bounced.
I face this problem too, Error tab doesn't show anything more.
So I use GitExtension to commit instead, problem solved.
Using parallel eGit and GitExtension to keep tracking a local git repo is a good idea. It's update runtime on both Eclipse and GitExtension when we make change on each.
I faced this problem. I delete the .git folder and .gitignore file push to upstream it works correctly.
I had this same issue. I resolved it by committing manually from terminal using (in this order):
git add . then git commit and lastly, git push from the local repo directory.
I faced similar problem, It was resolved after deleting index.lock file in .git\ folder.
