What is GIT?
A popular distributed version control system designed to handle very large projects with speed and efficiency.
http://git.or.cz/

Why GIT?
• Open source
• Easy to use and share your code efficiently
• Extremely fast, even with large projects
• Unlimited Repositories
• Unlimited branches
• Community

Staging files
. git add [file names]
• add all changed files to the staging area:
git add .
• these changes are NOT committed yet

GIT staging area
• git has a concept of a ‘staging area’
• you first stage all of the changes that you
are happy with
• then you can commit the changes using commit command

Committing
git commit -m “commit message”
Here commit message is used to track the cause for modifications in future.

Branching / Merging

Branching?
git branch
git branch [new branch name]
git checkout [new branch name]

Merging?
git checkout [target branch]
git merge [other branch]

Why branching and merging awesome?
Git will allow you to have multiple branches for each repository that can be entirely independent of each other and the creation, merging and deletion of those lines of development take seconds. Git makes this process incredibly easy and it changes the way most developers work when they learn it.

Merging and Branching usage
$ git checkout -b test
$ git commit -am "Adding cutoff method to String"
$ git checkout master
Switched to branch "master"
$ git merge test

Remote operations
git push [repository] [repository branch]
git pull [repository] [repository branch]

Working with GIT?
First we have to create an account in http://www.github.com .
Login to github with your account details.
Create repository:
Goto Dashboard
New Repository
Give project name,description,homepageurl
Click on create repository.

To Manage(Add,Modify,Remove files) in repository we need to have private,public keys.
Now check the keys in your system.
Open Git Bash
Type cd ~/.ssh
If you get dir not found error then you have to generate the keys.
Type ssh-keygen -t rsa -C " [email_address] "
Now your public key has been saved in /home/venkat/.ssh/id_rsa.pub

Next steps
Global setup:
1. Download and install Git software
2. git config --global user.name "venkat"
3. git config --global user.email venkat_nyros@yahoo.com

Process
id_rsa is the private key and id_rsa_pub is the public key.
Goto Account settings -> SSH Public Keys -> Add another public key.
Enter title and key and press Add key.
Test whether it is correctly configured or not
$ ssh git@github.com
Hi venkatadapa! You've successfully authenticated ,

Local -> Remote Submition
mkdir Appname
cd Appname
git init
touch README
git add README
git commit -m 'first commit'
git remote add origin git@github.com:venkatadapa/Appname.git
git push origin master

git add .
git commit -m “full application submitted”
git push origin master
Now all files in your application was submitted to remote repository

Remote -> Local -> Remote
Git clone gitrepo_url [local_dirname]
Cd local_dirname
Change some files and add new files
Git add [filesnames]
add the modified files to repository
Git commit -m “cause for modifications”
Git push origin master

Tracking
Git –help
Git stash
No local changes to save
Git diff
will show you all modifications made on each file
Gti status
will show you any changes need to update into server

Git log
Will show you all commit messages and commiters

GOOD LUCK
