[mantisbt-dev] Issue on committing changes to a fork (mantisbt-plugins)

[Manilal K M <ma...@ej...>]

Hello,

This is slightly offtopic, but since it's related to mantisbt-plugins I thought someone may have a quick solution for the following issue.

I tried to fork the timetracking plugin in mantisbt-plugins and had some issues in setting up the development environment. I cloned the repository and the source files got downloaded to timetracking folder within mantisbt/plugins. Then I moved everything (including .git) folder to the TimeTracking folder within the timetracking folder. I modified some of the files and committed the changes, but I got the following suspicious output:

[root@es032 TimeTracking]# git commit -a
[master 3b0abfe] Included jscalendar datepicker widget to input date Added new table to store factors and reference field in the data table

I have worked with EmailReporting plugin earlier, but didn't have such issues. 

Could someone help me to figure out this? Can I ignore the above messages submit the pull request?

I would like to submit couple of feature enhancements to the TimeTracking plugin.

regards
