It would be nice to have an accompanying "tutorial introduction to
contributing with git" that just goes over the following steps (in their
git equivalent):
cvs co blah blah (which I simply copy and paste from savannah anyway)
while (true) {
cvs update // get changes that happened overnight
vi foo/bar/baz.txt // or whatever editing commands you do
make; make web // or whatever testing commands you do
cvs update // get latest changes to prepare for
// uploading changes. This step may or
// may not be required in git.
cvs ci foo/bar/baz.txt // upload changes
}
I try to translate:
$ git clone blah blah
$ while (true) {
$ git pull # get latest changes; you must have a clean working dir
$ vi foo/bar/baz.txt
$ make; make web
$ git commit -a # you will be prompted for a meaningful message
$ # alternatively: git commit foo/bar/baz.txt
$ }
I'm just as much a newbie as Graham and several others on this list, but
didn't you
miss one important step, namely "git push" (somewhat corresponding to
"cvs ci", i.e. "cvs commit")?
