Git is a tool that you can use to collaborate with your team members ya know. Imagine you and a friend are working on the same project. Hmm, what happens when both of you need to make seperate changes? What if those changes happen to the same file?
Git is a version control system. It will help manage your project over time and handle multiple collaborators. I started this repository so you can practice collaborating with others.
Slack me your @ name or follow me on github and I'll give you access to make changes to the repository.
My code is hosted on github's servers. Copy it onto your local machine.
cd ~/my/deploy/directory
git clone https://github.com/kjpark/collabo.git
docker-compose up
LOOK HOW EASY THAT WAS!!... and navigate to '0.0.0.0:5000'. You should see a website. Play around with
the code and try to add yourself to the directory.
First, check to see what changes git has detected.
git status
Then add whatever changes you made to the stage.
git add whateverfiles
Check to make sure you're ready to commit (save) by running git status again
and then commit if everything looks good.
git commit -m "a nice, descriptive message"
And finally, send your changes back to the remote github repo.
git push
And if/when you need to grab changes that a teammate made / update to the latest codebase:
git pull # which just runs git fetch followed by git merge
