THIS WEEK….
its the MONTHLY SLUUG general mtng on Wed 9 Feb
The Main will be A Gentle Introduction to GIT" (the version control tool) by
Robert Citek
but it will follow the tutorial/base session...
BASE: SpeedBar -a tool for organizing/listing files & directories (written in EMACS)
by Steve Stegman
Emacs' Speedbar for fast file access.
Speedbar is an integral part of Emacs which has been in use since version 23.2 in 2010.
Entering “speedbar” in the emacs command line causes another frame to be opened to
graphically show the current directory tree which can be traversed upwards and downwards
from the current position. It shows all of the files and directories and each can be
examined with a single mouse click. If the file is not text but a jpg or pdf or some other
file type an auxiliary program will be called to display the file in an emacs buffer.
This session might show factors common with both personal and enterprise computing.
MAIN: A Gentle Introduction to GIT (the version control tool) by Robert Citek
From its inception in 2005, git has gone from a version-tracking tool used by Linux kernel
developers to a corporate mainstay for collaborating in teams on projects. In this talk,
we'll go over the three main parts of a git project ( i.e. working folder, staging
area, and repository ) and how to work with each. In the process, we'll touch on many
of the git objects that make those parts ( e.g. files/folders, commits, branches, SHAs,
etc. ). And we'll do that by creating and modifying a project from scratch, using git
to manage the changes. By the end, you will have a good basic understanding of how to use
git to work on your own projects to then branch into more advanced uses of git.
