[rules-users] Drools Workbench - Cloning a local Repo Gives “Invalid remote: origin”

[Michael Anstis]

I tried with the latest codebase and could clone a repository on my local
filesystem without problem (the path needs to be the folder containing the
git repository's .git folder).

As for your architecture; we don't support what you describe - which
appears to be a distributed git installation with automatic synchronization
of commits between the two.

Changes you make to files within "Drools Workbench installation 1" (using
the cloned repository "REPO-A-Cloned-1") will only appear in the clone.

You will need to handle a mechanism to push the commits made there to it's
origin (i.e. REPO-A) and synchronization to REPO-A-Clone-2.

Google returns links to server-side scripts you can run to synchronize
different GIT repositories; however you'll probably encounter merge
conflicts if a single file was modified in both clones.

With kind regards,

Mike
