Unix & Git for Everyone

Pre-work

1. Ensure your laptop up to the task of coding
  • Is virus and malware free
  • Uses the latest, stable, updated version of its operating system
  • Has a functioning screen, keyboard, and trackpad
  • Has plenty of free hard drive space and memory
  • Can reliably connect to wireless networks
2. Complete the setup guide for your computer's operating system

Following completion of these Pre-work assignments, you should:

  • Have a colorized terminal with a Git compatible prompt
  • Be able to open files in Sublime Text via the Terminal
  • Be able to receive a valid response when typing "git --version"

Testing Out of the Workshop

To test out of the workshop, you will need to complete this assignment. Completion of this assignment, whether independently or at the workshop, is due before the start of your Code Fellows course.

Demonstrate the following skills using only your Terminal, your text editor, and your web browser.

1. Create a fork of this repository
2. Clone the fork to your computer
3. Create a new branch called notes
4. Checkout the branch notes
5. Create a directory with the same name as your GitHub username

For example, codefellows

6. Create a unix_notes.txt file in this directory

For example, codefellows/unix_notes.txt

7. Add the notes about what you've learned about Unix to this file

For example,

cd <path> Changes the working directory to <path>
ls <path> Lists the directory content of <path>
...
8. Create a git_notes.txt file in this directory

For example, codefellows/git_notes.txt

9. Add the notes about what you've learned about Git to this file

For example,

git add <file> Adds any changes inside <file> to the staging area
git commit -m '<message>' Commits the staging area to the repository with a <message>
...
10. Add these untracked files to the staging area
11. Commit the changes
12. Push the branch to the origin remote on GitHub
13. Send a pull request from this branch to Code Fellows' master branch
