Setting up the Flix compiler project

Here's how to set up the the Flix compiler project.

1. Set up ssh and gpg keys
2. Clone my own fork
3. Create a branch called main with git branch main
4. Check out main with git checkout main
5. Delete master locally git branch -D master
6. Set up Flix as remote git remote add -t master -m master upstream git@github.com:flix/flix.git
7. Fetch and update branches git fetch --prune --all
8. Set the correct upstream git branch --set-upstream-to=upstream/HEAD main
9. Pull latest changes git pull

Remember to set signingKey, email, and name in the global git settings with git config --global user.<key> <value>

In short summary:

$ git clone git@github.com:jaschdoc/flix.git
$ git branch main
$ git checkout main
$ git branch -D master
$ git remote add -t master -m master upstream git@github.com:flix/flix.git
$ git fetch --prune -all
$ git branch --set-upstream-to=upstream/HEAD main
$ git pull

My IntelliJ font settings are:

• Font size 18

Here's a short list of the Flix keywords (may be out of date) for IntelliJ highlighting
