What is Git?

Saturday, June 18, 2011

Git is a distributed revision control system (RCS). An RCS is a kind of software that tracks changes on files that are in a certain repository. “Distributed” describes how Git does not need a central server to record changes on the said repository.

Short information about Linus Torvalds and on creating Git.Linus (and the Linux project) needed a new RCS after BitKeeper became non-free.Linus found that current SCMs lack performance, decided to make Git.

Git is...• A distributed revision

control system

• Created by Linus Torvalds and Junio Hamano

• Independent of network access or a central server (reminds you of SVN, huh?)

Where to Use Git?

Saturday, June 18, 2011

Following is a list of file types where one may consider putting into an RCS, specifically Git.

Saturday, June 18, 2011

Source code, talk about kinds of source code (HTML5, CSS3, PHP, Python, Ruby, JS)“Projects like the web site of a multinational company that hopefully wouldn’t get hacked again and again...”

Images (and some binaries), YMMV, as not all images are recommended to be kept inside source control. Most projects need images, so you might want to count them in. SVG illustrations, PNG icons, GIF diagrams of your corporate network, JPG photos and even sometimes PSDs... just to make sure you can roll back to something in case you need to make some edits. :)

Getting Git

Saturday, June 18, 2011

Explain the methods how Git can be obtained.

Git It Here• *Nix

• yum install git

• apt-get install git-core

• http://git-scm.com/download

• Mac

• http://code.google.com/p/git-osx-installer/

• http://git-scm.com/download (build it, old-school)

• http://macports.org/

• PC

• http://code.google.com/p/msysgit

*Note: Didn’t include Cygwin because it’s kinda bloated.

Basic Git Workflow

Saturday, June 18, 2011

To work effectively using Git...

“init” or “clone” a repo make changes

“add” and “commit” your changeset

“pull” changes from remote

“merge” conflicts, if any

“push” changes to remote

“tag” a version for release

“format-patch” for submission

Saturday, June 18, 2011

A basic understanding of a Git workflow. Unlike SVN, Git needs an additional step to “push” changes from the local repository to the remote repository.

“format-patch” what?!?

• git format-patch enables the user to create patches that can be sent via e-mail.

• Was useful for Linux kernel devs, reviewing code in small teams.

Saturday, June 18, 2011

format-patch lets the user make patches that can be submitted via electronic mail.site how Linux devs review the code by peers before submitting to the main repository.

Share Your Code!

• “git format-patch” old-skool, but effective for peers

• “git push” to a remote repository

• it, or try

Saturday, June 18, 2011

Offer some choices on how to share a Git repository.
