[Echo Yang]

hello,

I put Sam's instructions about git together and if you are new to git, I hope it can give you some help.

====================================================================================== 

Preparation:

0. edit file: /etc/hosts, add one line

207.245.62.214 bbtcollege.com

1. edit or create file .gnomerc and add one line

export GIT_SSH=/usr/bin/ssh in file 

2. generate ssh key pair:

ssh-keygen -t rsa

attention: no passphrase is entered(Enter key should be pressed)

The public key will be saved in .ssh/id_rsa.pub

you should send to Sam the following info:

1). your user name:

2). project names: project name under eclipse: xx_hws 

  project name for UML: xx_uml

3). git pub key produced by ssh-keygen:

position: .ssh/id_rsa.pub

===============================================================================

git with a remote server(bbtcollege.com) with command:

0. install git under Ubuntu:

   sudo apt-get install git-core

1. push files to the remote server:

mkdir xx_uml

cd xx_uml

git init

touch test.txt

git add .

git commit -a -m "Initial import"

git remote add origin git...@bbtcollege.com:xx_uml.git

(Attention: keep login name gitosis unchanged, it is not your user name)

git push origin master

2. clone project to your pc from remove server:

delete the xx_uml dir at your pc

git clone git...@bbtcollege.com:xx.git

3. update project from remote server

git pull git...@bbtcollege.com:xx.git master

Now the passage between your pc and remote server is built

======================================================================

git with a remote server(bbtcollege.com) under eclipse:

1. install git plugin for eclipse

1) eclipse memu: Help -> Install new software...

2) Find more software by working with the "Available software Sites" preference

3) search "egit" and select the site then press ok

4) back to install window and select work with 

Eclipse Git Plugin Update Site - http://download.eclipse.org/egit/updates

5) select both Eclipse Git Team provider and JGit

6) select all the operations(or just Eclipse EGit & Eclipse Mylyn) then install

Attention: if you meet the following problem during the installation, install mylyn plugin first

  "Cannot complete the install because one or more required items could not be found.

  Software being installed: EGit Mylyn 1.1.0.201109151100-r (org.eclipse.egit.mylyn.feature.group 1.1.0.201109151100-r)

  Missing requirement: EGit Mylyn 1.1.0.201109151100-r (org.eclipse.egit.mylyn.feature.group 1.1.0.201109151100-r) requires 'org.eclipse.mylyn.team_feature.feature.group 3.5.0' but it could not be found"

2. create your own project

3. select "share project" and select "Git" plug-in to share the selected project

4. choose or create a new Repo

5. push your project to remote server:

right click on created project and select Team > Remote > Push...

custom URI:

  URI: ssh+git://git...@bbtcollege.com/xx_hws.git

6. clone repo from remote server: 

File > Import > Git > Git Repository

URI: ssh+git://git...@bbtcollege.com/xx_hws.git

Destination: /home/xx/c++/xx_hws (where to put the project)

done!

tips: for not to write git host every time when you push your project, you can delete your local project and clone it from git remote server folowing the above procesures.

From now on, you can push your project to remote server by 

right click on project > team > commit

right click on project > team > push
