The issue is that one usually gets FLASH by downloading a gzip'd tar file rather than cloning a repository.</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif">
That page does actually tell you to do git init; git add; git commit, but only near the bottom, after the step-by-step beginning section. I now have flmake working for me and find it very useful.</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif">

I've been trying to follow the tutorial for using flmake (<a href="http://flash.uchicago.edu/site/flashcode/user_support/tools4b/usersguide/flmake/index.html" target="_blank">http://flash.uchicago.edu/site/flashcode/user_support/tools4b/usersguide/flmake/index.html</a>) and have run into a number of problems. Most have involved the git_info function in utils.py. The first I tracked it down to the fact that the main directory did not have a branch name, i.e. git branch did not return anything. This is normal if one gets the code via download as I did. I solved that by doing git init, git add, git commit in that directory. Then it failed because in my newly created directory, did not have a branch name.</div>

Really, a tutorial ought to work better than this. I suppose I can get around this in the same way I did with the main directory, though it's not clear that that is the best approach.</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif">
