Git

Developed by Linus Torvalds


Used originally to maintain the Linux kernel

[?] How do we get started with Git?

Installed by default on many distros

sudo yum install git

Download a repo

git clone <url>


git clone https://github.com/donpezet/awsdemophpwebapp.git

Working with a repo

git config --global user.email "[email protected]"


git config --global user.name "Your Name"

[?] What if we are starting from scratch? How do we make our own repo?

Create a new repo

mkdir test;cd test


git init

View status

git status

[?] Now that the repo is initialized, do we just copy our files over?

Add files to be tracked by Git

git add <changed_files>

Add all files to Git

git add .
git status

[?] How do we commit changes to our repository?

Save changes

git commit -m "<description>"

View changes

git log

[?] How do we submit changes to someone else's repository?

Branching

Makes an independent copy of a repo


Changes can be pushed upstream

List branches

git branch

Create a branch

git checkout -b <branch_name>


Push changes to a branch

git commit -a -m "Updated about page"

Switch back to master and resync

git checkout master


git merge <branch_name>
git status
