1
00:00:07,110 --> 00:00:09,120
- Okay, before I'm going
to actually show you

2
00:00:09,120 --> 00:00:11,670
how to work with Git, I
wanna tell you a little bit

3
00:00:11,670 --> 00:00:14,253
about Git client options to start with.

4
00:00:15,660 --> 00:00:18,090
So before you use a Git
client on your computer

5
00:00:18,090 --> 00:00:20,610
it makes sense to set global options

6
00:00:20,610 --> 00:00:21,930
that's on the developer side.

7
00:00:21,930 --> 00:00:24,910
So that doesn't have to deal
with what is on the website

8
00:00:25,770 --> 00:00:29,760
but it allows you to make
an easier experience.

9
00:00:29,760 --> 00:00:33,420
So the global options are
written to a file dot gitconfig

10
00:00:33,420 --> 00:00:36,240
and you can use the git
config minus l command

11
00:00:36,240 --> 00:00:38,940
to display a list of global options.

12
00:00:38,940 --> 00:00:42,510
The list that you should do is
to set your user information

13
00:00:42,510 --> 00:00:46,080
using git config minus
minus global user.name

14
00:00:46,080 --> 00:00:47,070
followed by your name

15
00:00:47,070 --> 00:00:49,713
and user.email followed
by your email address.

16
00:00:50,610 --> 00:00:52,920
And to set options on
a project only basis.

17
00:00:52,920 --> 00:00:54,930
That's also possible you use git config

18
00:00:54,930 --> 00:00:57,093
just without the minus
minus global option.

19
00:00:59,430 --> 00:01:02,613
So once you've done that, you
can start working with Git.

20
00:01:03,510 --> 00:01:05,700
Working with Git starts on the Git server,

21
00:01:05,700 --> 00:01:08,550
where the upstream repository is created.

22
00:01:08,550 --> 00:01:11,700
Next, a directory on the
local workstation is created

23
00:01:11,700 --> 00:01:15,150
and you use Git init to
initialize the Git metadata

24
00:01:15,150 --> 00:01:16,713
in the workstation directory.

25
00:01:17,730 --> 00:01:21,240
And next, you should create a README.md,

26
00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:22,500
which is a read me file

27
00:01:22,500 --> 00:01:24,240
and this read me files for your users.

28
00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:26,670
It contains information about the contents

29
00:01:26,670 --> 00:01:28,680
of the Git directory.

30
00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:31,770
And from there, the normal Git
command flow can be applied.

31
00:01:31,770 --> 00:01:35,310
So you are going to use
git add to add all files

32
00:01:35,310 --> 00:01:36,720
to the staging area.

33
00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:38,940
And once you're done, you're
going to use git commit

34
00:01:38,940 --> 00:01:41,490
minus M followed by the commit message

35
00:01:41,490 --> 00:01:44,220
to commit these files to the HEAD.

36
00:01:44,220 --> 00:01:47,190
Once the files are
committed, you push the files

37
00:01:47,190 --> 00:01:50,373
from the HEAD to the remote
repository using git push.

38
00:01:51,330 --> 00:01:53,670
Now different push methods are available

39
00:01:53,670 --> 00:01:57,360
and before issuing your first
push, you can use git config

40
00:01:57,360 --> 00:02:00,510
minus minus global push.default simple

41
00:02:00,510 --> 00:02:02,610
to set the default push method.

42
00:02:02,610 --> 00:02:06,000
There are different push
methods, don't worry about them.

43
00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:08,223
Simple, we'll define in most cases.

44
00:02:09,060 --> 00:02:10,590
Now let me demonstrate how to work

45
00:02:10,590 --> 00:02:12,240
with Git for your convenience.

46
00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:15,960
I've listed the steps that I'm going to do

47
00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:18,120
in this demo right here.

48
00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:19,020
In this demo,

49
00:02:19,020 --> 00:02:21,990
I'm using the Git repository name Tuesday

50
00:02:21,990 --> 00:02:24,840
use whatever kind of name you want.

51
00:02:24,840 --> 00:02:25,920
That is up to you.

52
00:02:25,920 --> 00:02:26,753
Let me show you.

53
00:02:30,750 --> 00:02:33,150
Alright, I am going to click on this icon

54
00:02:33,150 --> 00:02:34,380
in the upper left corner

55
00:02:34,380 --> 00:02:37,083
and I'm going to create
a new Git repository,

56
00:02:39,690 --> 00:02:42,213
my new Git repo.

57
00:02:43,980 --> 00:02:46,050
So what do we need to specify?

58
00:02:46,050 --> 00:02:49,560
Well the default settings
are good enough as they are,

59
00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:52,083
so I'm just going to
click create repository.

60
00:02:53,100 --> 00:02:55,980
Now it is convenient to
see right here everything

61
00:02:55,980 --> 00:02:58,860
that you should be doing, in
case you don't know what to do.

62
00:02:58,860 --> 00:03:00,690
And you don't want to read my slide.

63
00:03:00,690 --> 00:03:02,880
Well, these are basically
the steps that you need to do

64
00:03:02,880 --> 00:03:07,020
to initialize to git
repository on the other end.

65
00:03:07,020 --> 00:03:10,710
Let's go to the other end
and let me do it there.

66
00:03:10,710 --> 00:03:14,250
So here we are on the Linux site

67
00:03:14,250 --> 00:03:17,940
and I am going to start
by creating directory,

68
00:03:17,940 --> 00:03:22,113
mkdir, my new git repo.

69
00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:26,250
And before I'm going
to do anything with it,

70
00:03:26,250 --> 00:03:28,800
I wanna do a couple of global options.

71
00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:33,240
So git config minus
minus global user.email

72
00:03:35,550 --> 00:03:38,080
and I'm going to set that to my email

73
00:03:40,380 --> 00:03:44,747
and user.name "sandervanvugt".

74
00:03:52,650 --> 00:03:55,050
Next, another common option

75
00:03:55,050 --> 00:03:57,633
is about the default branch name.

76
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:04,650
So let's use global
init.default Branch main.

77
00:04:05,490 --> 00:04:06,720
Now what is the thing?

78
00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:08,250
The thing is that the default branch

79
00:04:08,250 --> 00:04:11,280
or default environment
needs to have a name.

80
00:04:11,280 --> 00:04:12,930
In the past that name was Masser.

81
00:04:12,930 --> 00:04:16,350
Nowadays Masser is considered
deprecated terminology

82
00:04:16,350 --> 00:04:19,260
and you shouldn't use it anymore.

83
00:04:19,260 --> 00:04:20,340
If you agree to that

84
00:04:20,340 --> 00:04:23,460
then you should tell Git
to use something else

85
00:04:23,460 --> 00:04:24,510
and that is what you can do

86
00:04:24,510 --> 00:04:28,440
using this global init.defaultBranch main.

87
00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:31,950
So from now on, if in a
documentation you read Masser,

88
00:04:31,950 --> 00:04:33,630
you should replace it with main.

89
00:04:33,630 --> 00:04:36,660
Now this is really something
I want to warn you about

90
00:04:36,660 --> 00:04:40,050
because a lot of documentation
still has a branch

91
00:04:40,050 --> 00:04:41,520
with the name Masser.

92
00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:44,940
Well, if that doesn't correspond
to your default branch

93
00:04:44,940 --> 00:04:45,840
you need to be aware

94
00:04:45,840 --> 00:04:48,240
that you need to change that branch name.

95
00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:50,190
We will probably see some examples of that

96
00:04:50,190 --> 00:04:51,840
as we move forward.

97
00:04:51,840 --> 00:04:56,460
Now let me go to this my
new git repo, and let me do

98
00:04:58,320 --> 00:05:01,410
an ls minus A to show you
that the directory is empty

99
00:05:01,410 --> 00:05:05,500
and now I'm going to use git
init and get init is initiating

100
00:05:07,170 --> 00:05:10,170
the git administrative directory.

101
00:05:10,170 --> 00:05:11,790
It's an empty directory in which files

102
00:05:11,790 --> 00:05:16,633
will be created using echo
hello greater than README.md.

103
00:05:18,810 --> 00:05:21,210
Now echo hello, that's not very much.

104
00:05:21,210 --> 00:05:23,340
If this is a real serious repository,

105
00:05:23,340 --> 00:05:25,170
you might want to consider

106
00:05:25,170 --> 00:05:28,170
putting in some actual usage information.

107
00:05:28,170 --> 00:05:31,590
For instance, this is software
that people can download

108
00:05:31,590 --> 00:05:33,030
and compile and install.

109
00:05:33,030 --> 00:05:35,793
You might want to provide
some instructions about that.

110
00:05:37,260 --> 00:05:39,423
Let me also create a file,

111
00:05:42,660 --> 00:05:45,690
just so that we have more
than just the hello file

112
00:05:45,690 --> 00:05:48,330
and then git status.

113
00:05:48,330 --> 00:05:50,310
I like to insert a git status,

114
00:05:50,310 --> 00:05:52,740
git status is telling us no commits yet

115
00:05:52,740 --> 00:05:54,843
and there are some untracked fouls.

116
00:05:55,860 --> 00:06:00,600
Now I'm going to use git
add and git status again.

117
00:06:00,600 --> 00:06:01,433
And what do we see?

118
00:06:01,433 --> 00:06:04,260
We see that we have
changes to be committed.

119
00:06:04,260 --> 00:06:07,787
So when I use git commit minus M

120
00:06:10,350 --> 00:06:12,180
followed by the commit message,

121
00:06:12,180 --> 00:06:15,150
I like initial commit
or something like that.

122
00:06:15,150 --> 00:06:17,340
Again, the commit message is not for you

123
00:06:17,340 --> 00:06:18,630
it's for your users.

124
00:06:18,630 --> 00:06:20,760
So be as specific as you can.

125
00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:23,190
And here we can see that
the files are committed

126
00:06:23,190 --> 00:06:27,210
and when I use git status,
we can see that we are on

127
00:06:27,210 --> 00:06:29,760
the branch main and the tree is clean.

128
00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:31,623
So they are ready for takeoff.

129
00:06:32,610 --> 00:06:33,443
What's next?

130
00:06:33,443 --> 00:06:35,370
Well, let me first pop the
slide so that you can see

131
00:06:35,370 --> 00:06:37,270
the next couple of steps on the slide.

132
00:06:40,290 --> 00:06:43,500
So here we have the next couple
of steps in the procedure.

133
00:06:43,500 --> 00:06:44,343
Let me show you.

134
00:06:49,530 --> 00:06:54,530
So now I need to to specify
get Branch minus M main.

135
00:06:55,740 --> 00:06:57,273
Well, I need to specify we've set it

136
00:06:57,273 --> 00:07:00,390
as a default so I don't
even have to specify it

137
00:07:00,390 --> 00:07:02,310
but I want you to be aware of this option.

138
00:07:02,310 --> 00:07:04,560
It's a common option that
you are going to need

139
00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:05,583
sooner or later.

140
00:07:06,450 --> 00:07:10,470
And now next, git remote add origin

141
00:07:10,470 --> 00:07:15,470
https://github.com/your
username/name of the repo

142
00:07:19,320 --> 00:07:22,623
My new git repo.

143
00:07:24,090 --> 00:07:26,220
And now we are about ready to push.

144
00:07:26,220 --> 00:07:27,720
But before I'm going to push,

145
00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:29,613
I need my personal access token.

146
00:07:34,860 --> 00:07:37,410
And this is the reason why
I'm storing it in a file

147
00:07:44,220 --> 00:07:48,660
and I'm copying it so that
it is ready because git push

148
00:07:48,660 --> 00:07:53,280
minus U origin main is what
I'm going to use to push.

149
00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:58,280
And there it has the the username.

150
00:07:58,710 --> 00:08:03,420
So the username still might
get username and the password,

151
00:08:03,420 --> 00:08:05,160
well, that is not the password

152
00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:07,650
that I'm using to log into the console.

153
00:08:07,650 --> 00:08:09,810
That is the git access token.

154
00:08:09,810 --> 00:08:10,710
So there we go.

155
00:08:10,710 --> 00:08:12,780
Git access token is now used

156
00:08:12,780 --> 00:08:16,650
and we can see that the
files are synchronized.

157
00:08:16,650 --> 00:08:18,750
Now to wrap it up, we should have a look

158
00:08:18,750 --> 00:08:21,663
at the Git repository
on the GitHub website.

159
00:08:22,530 --> 00:08:24,550
So here we have my new git repo

160
00:08:25,500 --> 00:08:28,680
and look at that, README.md and new file.

161
00:08:28,680 --> 00:08:33,363
So mission accomplished and
we are good to continue.
