• Git Book PL ENG
• http://git.asic.fis.agh.edu.pl/

• Git administrators : Kuba Moron, Krzysztof Swientek

It goes without saying that the book exists to be a source of information and assistance for GIT users new and old. Conveniently, though, the GIT command-line is self-documenting, alleviating the need to grab a book off the shelf (wooden, virtual, or otherwise). The git help command is your gateway to that built-in documentation:

$ git help

or for particular command

$ git help COMMAND

Before you start using git you have to start svnshell. It's not a mistake. You really should run svnshell to work with git! The main function of this script is to simplify key management, you will be asked only once to enter yours pass-phrase at script startup (if you don't like this script you may configure your ssh client in different way). Script is pre-installed on all production servers (koi, ibm). To start shell, just type:

 svnshell 

You should see modified prompt :

 [SVN] promt$ 

Notes:

• script assumes existence of public/private-key named svn and svn.pub in yours .ssh directory (.ssh/svn and .ssh/svn.pub)
• script doesn't have any significant dependencies you may copy it to you workstation and use it
• script source is in svn : cds_etc/trunk/etc/svn_scripts/svnshell

To get local copy (clone) of repository :

 git clone git@asic.fis.agh.edu.pl:REPOSITORY_NAME 

or optionally to have different local directory name

 git clone git@asic.fis.agh.edu.pl:REPOSITORY_NAME LOCAL_DIRECTORY_NAME 

If you have local definition of asic server IP (most of machines) a short version will also work

 git clone git@asic:REPOSITORY_NAME 

To download most recent version form repository use:

 git pull

To add new resource (file or directory) use:

 git add file 

NOTE: Be careful, adding directory means adding directory itself and all files inside it.

NOTE: In fact this command only adds the files to next commit, so you can put here a new or already tracked files.

In Git all commits are local, so after committing you should send your data to server.

To commit (remember) yours changes use:

 git commit 

NOTE: It will remember only files added to commit by git add

You can commit all changed files (already tracked by git) without using git add by:

 git commit -a 

You may also commit only specific resource:

 svn commit filename 

In addition you may provide commit comment from command line using -m option:

 git commit -m "comment to my commit"

To send all your commits to server use

 git push 

To remove resource (file / directory) use:

 git rm file 

To cancel your changes (revert to file version remembered in repository) use:

 git checkout -- file 

To check the status of your local repository copy use

 git status 

To check changes done by you and other users do

 git log 

or in graphical form

 gitk
