Hello
I am still in the process of learning how to use github. I understand
it allows for various kinds of setups and workflows.
What I just did is
1) Installed git for Windows http://msysgit.github.com/
2) Used the 'git bash' command line interface. I think it is easier to
use than the GUI in the end. The GUI is a bit confusing to me, whereas
using the command line and following instructions like
https://help.github.com/articles/fork-a-repo is straightforward
3) I followed the instructions to clone my repository
https://github.com/hhzl/Cuis
I had forked recently from
https://github.com/jvuletich/Cuis
Then I wanted to get the changes of Juan he did recently.
So I did
git remote add upstream https://github.com/jvuletich/Cuis.git
git fetch upstream
git merge upstream/master
This gave me a local copy of the file
ListOfCuisPackages.md
German and I had made in the last days and which Juan had added in the
meantime to his repository.
The next thing I would like to figure out how to add a subdirectory
'packages' which is under the control of git and put external *.pck
files I have tested there.
