First time using Git.

Appearing "Fatal: Not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git

Working on it long but not solution found.

Some idea?

Thx in advance.

Are you following the instructions on the Version control tab?

You'll need to provide, at a minimum, the project you're working with, the command you used to clone the repo, the path to the repository, the path to where you are when you issue the Git command that's returning the message above, and the command you're issuing. There's just not enough here to help you yet.

1) The project you're working with --> Prev/Next api (module)
2) The command you used to clone the repo --> git clone http://www.kernel.org/pub/scm/git.git extracted from URL said before.
3) The path to the repository --> I do not know.. is it done automatically... doesn't it?
4) The path to where you are when you issue the Git command that's returning the message above --> Any
5) The command you're issuing --> git branch

I cloned following: http://raulmuroc.blogspot.com/2011/07/git-getting-git-repository.html

I want to create patch following: http://drupal.org/node/707484

Hope it is enough.

I am novice, I do not catch this methodology of clone or get repository, what does it contain? what is it useful for?

Thanks, apologizing for misunderstand it.

To work with a Drupal module, try following directions on that module's Version control tab, in your case: http://drupal.org/node/456850/git-instructions

This looks safe to close after a year. If I'm mistaken, please re-open.
