Sync code between local and remote machine

• Setup git server in your remote machine

  • https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-set-up-a-private-git-server-on-a-vps
  • you can just use ssh-keygen without -C to generate the pubkey.

• Local machine setup

  • your local repo dir1 for official git is ~/code
  • your local repo dir2 for remote machine git is ~/rt/code
  • git remote -v to check the remote repo
  • sync code between dir1 and dir2
    • rsync -av --progress ~/code/<your project> ~/rt/code/ --exclude .git --exclude */target/*
  • workflow
    • normal workflow in dir1
    • sync from dir1 to dir2
    • git push whatever change in dir2 to remote machine git

• Remote machine setup

  • git clone your own created repo
  • always git pull and run test
