setup git

Setting up a new remote git repository is easy.

Here's my own personal howto:

(I) -  Set up a git project
===========================

http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/tutorial.html

1) Make an empty project dir

	cd test
	mkdir info
	cd info

2) Initialize this directory as a git project

	git init

3) Copy all the files over that you want to use to start the project

	cp ~/test/info/diary.txt .

4) Add these files to the index

	git add .

5) Commit these changes

	git commit -m "Initial commit"


(II) - Setting Up a Shared Repository
=====================================

1) Make a new directory where the shared repository will live

	mkdir ~/mDEV/info
	cd ~/mDEV/info

2) Initialize the shared repository

	git --bare init --shared
	git --bare fetch /home/sness/test/info master:master


(III) - Interacting with the Shared Repository from a remote machine
====================================================================

1) Clone the project from the server

	git clone q:/home/sness/mDEV/info

2) Update the project with the latest files (equivalent to "cvs update")

	git pull origin

3) Add the files that have changed

	git add file1 file2 file3

4) Commit the files

	git commit

5) Push the changes to the server

	git push origin

or if there is more than one branch on the server:

	git push origin master
