Re: GitHub starter guide?

[Andrew Kluthe]

I like source tree but prefer SmartGitHG.

could always roll your own with livecode as well for an interesting hobby
project. Livecode's text parsing abilities could really shine here.

I do think its helpful to start trying to learn via the command line though
initially.

Heres a nice little interactive tutorial that walks you through the command
line basics.

https://try.github.io/levels/1/challenges/1

I also find the history and creation of git to be an interesting read for
people asking themselves "whats the big deal".

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Git_%28software%29

I also love the whole deploy from repo stuff. This has made managing
production servers for web apps a dream. Commit a few changes, push to your
deployment repo and voila. Problem and need to roll back? Can roll back to
any previous state with a simple command on a terminal.

I like sourcetree as well. As a reminder I have an article that walks you
through setting up sourcetree to watch the livecode repository as well as
the repositories of the livecode engineers.

Not sure of anyone has mentioned sourcetree which is a very good gui from 
atlassian which integrates with bitbucket and GitHub. Last time I checked the 
actual github app was a bit useless. Command line isn't that complicated though.

There's a good starter here:
https://www.atlassian.com/git/tutorials/

But the git pro book that others have linked to is definitely worth the read.

Cheers

Monte

Fwd: GitHub starter guide?

Thanks Thierry. Will report how it installed on my LAN’s OS X (file, print, 
dematerialized audio source, etc…) server as soon as done. The french v2 of the 
book is a pleasant and very accessible read. I just discovered that Git is a 
Linus Torwald’s creation ;D

Dunno. I really only use git from the commandline.
There's git integration built into RubyMine, but I don't trust it enough 
to use it. I just drop out to a terminal prompt and issue git commands 
there.


I know github has some gui apps, but I don't know anything about them.
The important part, after you sign up for a github account, is to fork 
the runrev livecode repository. Then you clone a local version of that 
on your local machine. It's a one-time thing, and it's pretty easy to do.


Getting further along:
When you've made local changes that you want to contribute, you push 
them back to your forked repository on github, and then issue a pull 
request so that someone from runrev can look it over and pull it into 
their main repository.


There are also some notes at
http://forums.livecode.com/viewtopic.php?f=66&t=19526
They're mostly about git itself, but there's some github stuff as well.

...and you really want gitk or tig or something similar.

Knowing you want to do everything on Ubuntu, this may not be of interest
to you, but there's a Mac front end that makes things pretty easy.  I
haven't done a huge amount with it (I'm a complete novice), but was able
to configure everything and link to client repositories without reading
any docs.

Re: GitHub starter guide?

[shawnlc]

I'm no git master by any stretch of the imagination.  I've used it for quite
awhile to find code though.  I just recently got into repositories and team
collaboration.  Remember, github isn't the only place to use git.  There's
places like BitBucket, and GitLab; the pricing structures are quite
different too.  You can use terminal for command, or you can use an IDE. 
I'd say most use the terminal.  The basics of git are quite simple and only
a few commands, it starts getting a little more complicated when you get
into different branches and merging branches.

YouTube is a good place to start, here's a few more:
https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/BITBUCKET/Bitbucket+Documentation+Home

http://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Git-Basics-Getting-a-Git-Repository

In a nutshell you create a directory, this is where your project lives, tell
git to monitor this directory with `git init`, using `git status` will give
you the status, `git add .` will add all changed files, then you have `git
push origin` to push to your repository, `git checkout`, etc.

I’ve used easy github UIs. It’s the signing up part that may involve command

Thanks.

So it seems one can't use the web site as a repository without first 
installing a command line app.  I suppose that's a good filter to keep 
less serious people from just using it as a file store. :)


I'll see if I can put on a few more IQ points and give it a try.

Ha! Some of those things are easier than others.

For just going there and downloading source, I think it can be easy, go to the 
URL, click the download zip button.

For signing up, and getting the rights to submit things, it’s harder. This may 
be a good starting point:

https://help.github.com/articles/set-up-git/ 


It does involve command line things.

GitHub starter guide?

[Richard Gaskin]

GitHub seems very powerful, but it seems usability takes a back seat there.

I'd like to start using it and encourage others to as well, but at first 
glance it's dauntingly opaque to the point of off-putting.


Anyone here know of a good guide to get started with it?
