Github Desktop Version 'LINK' Download
Devon Lalonde
I install GitHub for desktop and hoped it ships with the most recent version, however git --version returns git version 1.9.5.github.0. But if I understand correctly, we're already at version 2.6.x! So how can I update to this version on my Windows machine, where the only version of git I installed was with the GH Desktop?
GitHub is a platform where Git repositories can be hosted on the cloud/online (a Microsoft subsidiary since 2018), and GitHub Desktop is the official desktop client to interact with GitHub using an app and GUI instead of the command line or a web browser.
GitHub Desktop offers an easy way of getting started with GitHub and version control. Depending on your use case GitHub desktop may be sufficient for your needs. If you are already familiar with using the Command Line then using Git on the Command Line may offer some advantages. Version control systems like Git have a lot of features available to use. Some of these will only be applicable in very specific contexts, others will be more commonly useful. Alongside the lesson suggested above the resources below will allow you to gain a deeper understanding of version control.
I have installed zorin recently. so i have installed github desktop and vs code from software and vs code integration option cannot be found in github. here's a screen shot also i have opened another help topic about that scrambled dialogs and dropdowns
A lot of common actions are not intuitive, and after using it for a couple of years, I have not even tried to understand version control. I gave up on trying to use the desktop interface, and just use the web interface.
2 months ago I was on the same situation.
Did some research and came across the
Hackable IDE Atom.
This was developed by github and has integrated push/pull for github.
Have also heard you can download a tool for it to upload arduino code straight to
your arduino from atom.
I am never going back to arduino ide for editing.
With the auto finish and code minimization i can code quicker and mininmize huge sections of code when im not concerned with it.
Also its nice to have several tabs open and lots of cool themes.
I highly recommend.
However if you are using ubuntu 18.04 lts i dont think you can push or pull to github. atleast i cant. but at work its all windows.
heres the link

Attribute commits with collaborators easily. Quickly add co-authors to your commit. Great for pairing and excellent for sending a little love/credit to that special someone who helped fix that gnarly bug of yours. See the attribution on the history page, undo an accidental attribution, and see the co-authors on github.com
Under the software installation step there is also a link to install Github desktop. This is a nice program for beginners with Git, and there is a Mac version too, so while you can skip the installation of Git itself, this Github Desktop program is still a nice one to have.
Getting below error while installing the .rpm package.

Probably your system is out of date so, check if there are any updates available. or you can install dependencies separately. Suppose you are getting "(libXtst) is needed by github-desktop-2.9.4.linux1-1.x86_64" message. So you install libXtst by running the following command sudo rpm -i libXtst. Repeat this process until all of your dependency issues are resolved then run the GitHub-desktop installer again.
Thanks, man. I have last used this application around a month ago and I have not faced any kind of issue. Everything was working as expected. Maybe, the new version is causing some problems, try a few older versions and check if the problem still persistent? If you want you can create an issue also github.com/shiftkey/desktop/issues
Go to File Station and open the docker folder. Inside the docker folder, create one new folder and name it github-desktop. Follow the instructions in the image below.
Note: Be careful to enter only lowercase, not uppercase letters.
The alternative way to install GitHub Desktop on Pop!_OS is through an APT repository. The beauty of this method is that it facilitates a straightforward updating process for your GitHub Desktop application, along with other packages. Currently, two third-party APT repositories in the United States serve as mirrors for the shiftkey/desktop GitHub project and are endorsed by the project page itself. While a few users outside the US might have difficulty connecting to a US mirror, this is not anticipated to affect most users.
The setup should take you less than 10 minutes.
Create an account on GitHub, then create a repository, and add a collaborator.
Download Anchorpoint (a desktop application that pushes and pulls files from GitHub), create a new project as a Git repository, and pick your current Unity project folder.
Add the URL from GitHub and add the same collaborators to your Anchorpoint project. In the Timeline of Anchorpoint, just push all the files to GitHub.
Your team member needs to accept the project invite of GitHub and Anchorpoint, so she can join the Git repository and download all the files.
Now you can collaborate by pushing and pulling files through GitHub.
