Public Repos at https://acm.cs.uic.edu/git/public

Refer the the help section of the git website for instructions.

Instructions for local repos are listed below

be connected to ACM

ssh acm.cs.uic.edu

Create a directory called “git” in your home directory. In reality you can put a git project anywhere, but the web interface will only pick it up if it is in a directory called “git”.

mkdir -p git
cd git

mkdir -p myproject.git
cd myproject.git
git init --bare

While still in ~/git/myproj.git:

touch git-daemon-export-ok
echo "a nifty project" > description

I assume you have already created a local git project with something like the following commands:

cd myProject
git init
vim .gitignore
git add .
git commit 

Add acm as a remote repo

git remote add origin ssh://user@acm.cs.uic.edu:~/git/myproj.git

The syntax for this command is “push toBranch fromBranch”

git remote push origin master

working on a project with a partner that has already started:

on acm, run these comands

ssh acm.cs.uic.edu
mkdir -p git/project.git
cd git/project.git
git init --bare
echo "my project is awesome" > description
touch git-daemon-export-ok

on your local machine run these commands:

mkdir project
git init
git remote add origin ssh://acm.cs.uic.edu:~/git/project.git
git remote add friend http://acm.cs.uic.edu:~/some path/git/friend/git/project.git
git remote update
git merge friend

git add .
git commit

git push origin master

git remote update
git merge friend

git mergetool [-t vimdiff]

fix problems, then

git commit
