Git tutorial

Setting up a local copy

1. Install git:
   

sudo apt-get install git

2. Clone repository (this will create a folder called cyto-rna in the working directory):
   

git clone https://github.com/MatthewThe/cyto-rna.git

Workflow

When working on the project, please follow the following workflow (all commands are executed inside the created cyto-rna folder):

1. Get the latest version of the repository:
   

git pull

2. Make your local changes (including adding and deleting files):
3. Add new files if you have created any:
   

git add .

4. Commit your files to your local repository:
   

git commit -am "Some useful message"

5. Push your files to github (this might give errors if changes were made by another person in the mean time):
   

git push

• Remember to do steps 3-5 regularly (at the minimum when you finish your work for the day, preferably after every significant work).
• Note that you can also use git on UPPMAX using the exact same commands as above
