I am trying to set up my new Squarespace Developer site with my Github account.

I've followed Squarespace's guide on doing this, but I continue to receive errors whenever I try to commit or publish. I have made some test changes to my files for testing, but Github still comes back with "Error calculating diff."

I believe I cloned the repo correctly because it's showing up in my file-system - but I'm still not able to publish it to the web.

This image shows the errors that Github has come back with.

My question is this: How can I make my Squarespace developer account to work with Github? I would like to be able to make changes and commit and have them immediately go live on my site.

  • Sorry for the "unclear what you are asking" close votes. What you are asking is cristal clear... for anyone actually knowing about git and GitHub, and taking the time to *look* at the picture you mention. – VonC Mar 15 '14 at 20:24

  • Somewhat, but not really, I set my repo location to where I'm pulling my Squarespace Repo from. But now It's not pushing to GitHub: http://cl.ly/image/11282I311m46 – supercgeek Mar 22 '14 at 06:14
  • Do yu have added file to your local index as I mentioned? What does `git remote -v` show you (in command line, when you are in your repo folder) – VonC Mar 22 '14 at 06:45

From your screenshot, it looks like you didn't add anything to the index in order to make a commit.

That is why:

  • git commit returns nothing to commit, working directory clean.
  • git push would always reports "Everything up-to-date"

As mentioned in the Squarespace guide, you need to change a file content:

Then you’ll need to add the files you want Git to track for this commit.

git add site.region

Then you’ll need to commit your changes
And, finally, push the changes to your site.

This guide can help you understand the basic git operations.

Firts add those file on which you changed . cmd - git add 'fname.region' and came back to main directory and and commit your site.region file
