Git Cheatsheet

Starting

• Download git
  • Windows: https://git-scm.com/download/win
  • Mac: https://git-scm.com/download/mac
  • Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install git
• Make a folder called git
• In that new folder, download the Repo git clone https://github.com/grimwolf007/Robotics-Projects.git

The Workflow

• Make issues based on what you want to do
• Make a branch git branch <branch name>
• Checkout that branch git checkout <branch name>
• Make edits on that branch until the issue is resolved, commiting to your local host when you get something done
  • To commit:
    • git status to see what you changed
    • git add <file or directory> to stage the files for a commit
    • git commit to "save" your work (you can always rollback changes to a last commit)
  • If there is a change to the master branch in that time pull and merge the changes git pull
• Once the issue is resolved push all of your local commits to the github server git push
• If you are pushing code it is best to have it reviewed before pushing it to the master branch (create pull request in github)
• If it is just a change to a Readme or cosmetic change feel free to push directly to master
