Adding freescale Git to local repo

[dilshad_alam]

I am trying to add remote freescale git branch to my repo.

Am i missing anything?

dalam@hibllxel04:~/work/workspace/linux3.14$ git remote add imxorigin http://git.freescale.com/git/cgit.cgi/imx/linux-2.6-imx.git

dalam@hibllxel04:~/work/workspace/linux3.14$ git fetch imxorigin

error: Unable to get pack index http://git.freescale.com/git/cgit.cgi/imx/linux-2.6-imx.git/objects/pack/pack-e5f627a361db924bf101d0...

My requirement is to take selective commits from freescale rel_imx_3.14.28_1.0.0_ga branch to my gitlab repo.

Can someone guide me steps to do this?

Hello Dilshad Alam,

I meant to use:

$ git remote add imxorigin git://git.freescale.com/imx/linux-2.6-imx.git

Instead of:

$ git remote add imxorigin http://git.freescale.com/git/cgit.cgi/imx/linux-2.6-imx.git

Would you please give it a try?

Hi Gusarambula,

You mean to say

git clone imxorigin ?

Hello Dilshad Alam,

I wasn’t able to fetch either. However, it worked with the clone:

$ git remote add imxorigin git://git.freescale.com/imx/linux-2.6-imx.git

$ git fetch imxorigin
