<p>This is NOT a tutorial. This is a set of reminders for people who already know all this stuff.
|
||
<p>Since 2019 all use of version control software requires that you
|
||
have <a href="keyexchange.html">key-pair setup</a> already set up before any of this will work on your own machine.
|
||
|
||
<p>
|
||
- check that you can get ssh working before trying to run git too</font>
|
||
|
||
<p>If you can get to the <i>expo laptop</i> try these commands on that first as the key exchange has already been done. If the key exchnage has not been done then none of this will work.
|
||
|
||
<p> Open a terminal in a new directory, e.g. /tmp/experiments/ in which you want to create the repo. It will automatically create a folder with the repo name e.g.'troggle' in that directory.

<h3><a id="gitwindows">Using git in Windows</a></h3>
|
||
|
||
|
||
<p>Do not use the official "git for Windows" client software as it doesn't understand symlinks in the WSL filesystem we use on Windows. Use VS Code which understand WSL or a command line git in a WSL terminal window.
|
||
<p>"Git is a 4 handle, dual boiler espresso machine – when all you need is instant."
|
||
<p>Once you've downloaded and installed a git client, the first step is to create what is called a checkout of the data management system. This creates a copy on your machine which you can edit to your heart's content. The command to initially check out ('clone') the entire expo data management system is:</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><code>git clone ssh://expo@expo.survex.com:/home/expo/expoweb</code></p>
|
||
|
||
<p>for subsequent updates</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><code>git update</code></p>
|
||
|
||
<p>will generally do the trick.</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>After you've made a change, commit it to you local copy with:</p>
|
||
|
||
<p><code>git commit</code> (you can specify filenames to be specific)</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>The first time you do this on a Windows machine it will probably not work as it does not recognise the server key exchange.
|
||
Fix this by running putty (downloading it from <a href="https://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/">https://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/</a>), and connecting to the server 'expo@expo.survex.com' (on port 22). Confirm that this is the right server.
|
||
If you succeed in getting a shell prompt then ssh connection are working and git should be able to clone the repo, and send changes back.</p>
