Eclipse and Git: Difference between revisions

==Git Repo==

I'm using ubuntu, so I installed the necessary git tools with the following command:

<code>

sudo apt-get install git-core

</code>

I then opened a terminal and cd'd to the location of my project in the eclipse workspace, noted above.

<code>

cd /home/dregin/workspace/Project-Name/

</code>

I then set up a .git repo following the steps provided by github, [http://help.github.com/creating-a-repo/ here].

<code>

git config --global user.name "My Name"

git config --global user.email email@address.com

</code>

'''NOTE:''' At this point the steps want you to create/move into a directory, but we're already in the directory we're going to use.

<code>

git init

git add .

git commit -m 'My first commit'

git remote add origin git@github.com:username/repository-name.git

push origin master

</code>

'''NOTE:''' If this isn't your first commit to the repository you plan on using you should merge with the remote repository as follows:

<code>

git fetch origin

git merge origin/master

push origin master

</code>
