I have been trying to use the ruby-git gem to make commits etc from with in a ruby script however the method to check the current status always throws an error. My understanding is that this code, although not doing too much, should be valid. <pre><code>#gem install git require 'rubygems' require 'git' g = Git.init g.status </code></pre> but it returns: <blockquote> Git::GitExecuteError: git diff-index "HEAD" 2>&1:fatal: ambiguous argument 'HEAD': >unknown revision or path not in the working tree. Use '--' to separate paths from revisions from /Users/X/bin/ruby-ee-1.8.7/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/git-1.2.5/lib/git/lib.rb:700:in <code>command' from /Users/X/bin/ruby-ee-1.8.7/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/git-1.2.5/lib/git/lib.rb:672:in</code>command_lines' from /Users/X/bin/ruby-ee-1.8.7/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/git-1.2.5/lib/git/lib.rb:287:in <code>diff_index' from /Users/X/bin/ruby-ee-1.8.7/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/git-1.2.5/lib/git/status.rb:99:in</code>construct_status' from /Users/X/bin/ruby-ee-1.8.7/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/git-1.2.5/lib/git/status.rb:8:in <code>initialize' from /Users/X/bin/ruby-ee-1.8.7/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/git-1.2.5/lib/git/base.rb:175:in</code>new' from /Users/X/bin/ruby-ee-1.8.7/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/git-1.2.5/lib/git/base.rb:175:in `status' from (irb):5 </blockquote> Does any one have examples of how to get the current git status within ruby (using ruby-git)?

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
