I now have Git installed on my Windows 7 PC at work. The files that I wish to put under Git version control exist on a Solaris 10 workstation. In the Git bash provided, I can ssh into the Solaris 10 machine. I also can the CuteFTP program on my Windows PC to move/copy/etc. files between the two machines. How can I put these Solaris files under version control under these circumstances? I thought I had conceptually seen how to accomplish this via ssh, but if it is doable, my limited knowledge of Git and ssh is insufficient to find the path of success.
In order to at least start putting these files under version control, I have created a repository for these files on an intranet drive, used CuteFTP to copy them into the repository from Solaris, and cloned this repository to my Windows PC. My current workflow is very clunky indeed: 1) Bring up file(s) to edit in my Windows editor from my local project working directory. 2) Perform edits. 3) Save edits. 4) In Git bash stage these. 5) Either CuteFTP or scp from Git bash the changed files to Solaris. 6) Test files in Solaris. 7) Repeat. As needed do Git commits and pushes. This is better than what I had been doing. At least I *am* moving into the version control world. But how can I make this (hopefully, lots) better? BTW, I have Git working well at home. As an update I am working on learning how to use Python's unittest module at home. Once I am successful there, I will implement this at work: after the fact on existing projects and from the get-go on new ones. -- boB _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
