Git
Andrew Liu

What Is Version Control?
Manage data by systematically
keeping previous version
Used in word processing, wiki system,
software development
Popular solutions:
CVS
Subversion (SVN)
Git

Why Use Version Control?
To collaborate with others
Orderly vs. chaotic
To keep track of history
Easy to debug
Easy to rollback

Why Git?

Terminology
Repository
The repository is where files' current and
historical data are stored
Commit
A commit is the action of writing or
merging the changes made in the
working copy back to the repository.
The terms commit can also used in noun
form to describe the new revision that is
created as a result of committing.

Terminology
Branch
A set of files under version control may
be branched or forked at a point in time
so that, from that time forward, two
copies of those files may develop at
different speeds or in different ways
independently of each other.

Terminology
Conflict
A conflict occurs when different parties
make changes to the same document,
and the system is unable to reconcile the
changes. A user must resolve the conflict
by combining the changes, or by
selecting one change in favor of the
other.

Terminology
Merge
A merge is an operation in which two sets
of changes are applied to a file or set of
files.
Tag
A tag refers to an important snapshot in
time.
Head
The most recent commit.

Editing files
Creating new files
Deleting files
Use git to remove a file
git rm

Bisect
Find by binary search the change that
introduced a bug
git bisect?start
git bisect?good?<good�\version>
git bisect?bad?<bad�\version>
HEAD is now point to the commit
which is reachable from <bad-version>
but not from <good-versoin>

Bisect
If it does crash, then:
git bisect?bad
If it is working, then:
git bisect?good
Finally find the guilty commit:
git bisect?reset

A Clean Tree
Some operations must be applied on a
clean tree (i.e. no dirty or staged file)
Git provides a stack for unclean files
git stash
git stash?pop

More on Branches

Note: the tree should be clean
git checkout?<branch>
Create a new branch
git branch?<new�\branch>
git branch?<new�\branch>?<start�\point>
Create and switch to the new branch
git checkout?�Cb?<new�\branch>
git checkout?�Cb?<new�\branch>?<start�\

Possible Conflict
Original A B C

D E

Merge A B C F

D E

Rebase A B C D�� F��

Merge
Merge the current branch with
<another-branch>
git merge?<another�\branch>
Conflicts may occurred if modifications
of a same file are in both branches

Helpers
Showing common ancestor
git show?:1:<filename>
Showing the version of HEAD
Showing the version of MERGE_HEAD
Give up a merge
git reset �\�\hard HEAD

Rebase
Start rebase procedure
git rebase?<another�\branch>
Rebase would stop if conflicts
occurred
To continue the rebase process:
git rebase?�\�\continue
Stop the rebase procedure
git rebase?�\�\abort

Resolve Conflicts
1. Use git diff?to find out the
conflicted files
2. Resolve the conflict by your favorite
editor
3. git add?<resolved�\file>
4. git commit (not needed for rebase)

Setup remote
Listing all remotes
git remote
Adding new remote
git remote?add?<git�\path>?<remote>
git clone?will automatically setup
remote ��origin��

Working with remote
Get information from remote
git fetch
Pulling a branch
git pull?<remote>?<branch>
git pull?<remote>?<local>:<target>
git pull?<remote>?<branch> is equal to:
git fetch
git merge?<remote>/<branch>

Pushing to remote
The push command
git push?<remote>?<branch>
git push?<remote>?<local>:<target>
Push command may fail if conflicts
occurred on remote
To solve the problem:
Pull down and merge then push

Get a Repository
Set a server
Possible, but it requires lots of efforts
Use provided service
Github: http://github.com/
The most popular solution
Free for public projects
Codaset: http://codaset.com/
Provides a single free private project for each
account

Setup a Repository
Follow instructions:

Tips
Each commit includes a single logical
change
The code should be tested before
commit
(NOT RECOMMEND) Mark ��untested�� if
the commit is not tested
Rebase rather than merge when
dealing with local branches

For Web Application
Development
Two branches:
master
Mapped to the production site
dev
Mapped to the test site
Workflow
Develop in dev or other branches except
master
Push to dev for testing
Push to master for production
