Github for Windows Settings

Github for Windows has become very popular, and even Codeplex has now promoted Git. Github is full of various high-quality open-source projects, such as ruby on rails and cocos2d.

For programmers who are used to the Windows graphic interface, it takes some time and patience to use Github. However, the latest Github for Windows release greatly reduces the learning cost and difficulty, he is even simpler than SVN. Okay, you don't believe it. Let's take a step over it:

1. Download GitHub for Windows at http://www.bkjia.com/soft/19406.html.

2. log in. After installation, open GitHub and log in with your GitHub account. Please note that Github for Windows will help you create an SSH Key. You should receive an email to help you create an SSH Key, which saves a lot of trouble:

3. Create a repository. Click the "+ Add" button above to create a new warehouse and enter the relevant information:

4. the newly created warehouse has not been actually submitted to the local warehouse, which is equivalent to a new modification. github simplifies some operations and makes any modifications, you only need to add comments to the local repository, and then submit them to the remote repository. So let's add a comment:

After a comment is added each time, it is equivalent to submitting a version to the local repository, and then you can select a version to submit to the distant repository.

5. at this time, we can Publish a repository. After Publish, the button becomes the in sync text, indicating that the changes will be committed in the future, at this time, you should see an additional repository on your github:

6. add a project. The repository is saved locally in a folder. Github for windows will monitor this folder and any modifications will be seen in the repository, then you can submit the changes to the local repository by adding comments as above. Here we open the repository directory and add a project to it:

5. Submit the changes to the local repository and return to Github for windows. You can see the added project. Similarly, submit the comments to the local repository:

6. Click sync to submit the local repository to github.

7. participate in collaborative development of open-source projects:

Github now supports Windows developers in depth. Now each github open-source project has a "Clone in Windows" button before it. We can Clone any open-source project we are interested in, then, make changes to participate in the development of open-source projects.

After clicking this button, the browser will ask to open Github for Windows, download the project to your local device, and create a local repository:

Summary: github for Windows simplifies some concepts and operations, and almost all the main operations are completed through the graphical interface, basically complete the daily writing. The following are simplified:

1. Simplify push to remote warehouse as a synchronization button

2. Simplify submission to the local repository to add comments to some column modifications.

More, including branch establishment and management. Let's explore this part by yourself. In short, github for Windows is indeed a very good tool.
