<h3>Use the online view of these!</a></h3>
<p>These online webpages (links above) give a much clearer view of what is going on than many git tools you may be using on your machine.
<p>Have a look at the <a href="/repositories/drawings/.git/log/">version history of the drawings</a> to look at progress on getting the recent surveys uploaded, and <a href="/repositories/expoweb/.git/stats/?period=y&ofs=10">who has been doing what on the website and handbook</a>.
<p>For an example, see this <a href="/repositories/expoweb/.git/diff/handbook/computing/winlaptop.html?id=615ce571c48075cb606de533c6baa284ac9e964b">simple edit</a>.
<h3>Uploading cave survey data</a></h3>
<p>You can read or clone these repos without any control, but to write ("push") to them you will need to use <varssh://</var> and set up the <a href="keyexchange.html">key exchange</a>.
<p>So cavers wanting to upload their cave survey data have to use a machine on which they key is already set up. The <i>expo laptop</i> lives in the potato hut during expo and it is sometimes joined by the laptop '<i>aziraphale</i>'. These are both loaned machines running Linux. If you want to use your own laptop then
see the <a href="basiclaptop.html">minimal laptop setup</a>.
