Developer Notes and Practices

Developer Notes

To All Contributors, Below is some quick notes on using git with the AIDE project.

-- Git Clone a new copy of the master repository (From a folder not containing an "AIDE" folder) -- git clone git@github.com:Tpimp/AIDE.git

-- Git Pull (Update/Sync) with master -- git pull git@github.com:Tpimp/AIDE.git

-- Git Add Changes (All) -- git add -A

-- Git commit all w/ a message -- git commit -am "Message Describing the Changes Made in this Commit"

-- Git Push committed changes to master -- git push git@github.com:Tpimp/AIDE.git

-- Create new branch -- git branch "new_branch_name"

-- Switch To/Checkout Branch -- git checkout "new_branch_name"

-- merge Branch (current branch = source, referenced branch = destination) -- git merge "master"

-- Stash changes command -- git stash

-- Unstash changes -- git stash apply

-- Create a New Copy of the Project --

-- Create a new feature (and branch technique. Do this for all newly created features!) --

Run Sync command to update/sync your master branch (See Git Common Commands)
create a new branch for the feature (See Git Common Commands)
switch to the newly created branch (See Git Common Commands)
Do all preliminary building and work on new feature (only work on new feature code here)
After testing the reliability of New Feature X, run merge command from new_feature branch on "master" (See Git Common Commands)
run add all command (See Git Common Commands)
run commit command and add a descriptive message (See Git Common Commands)
switch to "master" branch (See Git Common Commands)
run the push command (See Git Common Commands)

-- Stash current changes before updating then re-apply changes --
