j Programming in Python BCGS Summer 2022 This is the repository of Shravani, PAarth and Moritz (SPAM), to work on exercises and projects together.

Here are some important things to note

• The main/master branch is called the "main" branch. This is the branch in which we will make the final files that will be submitted.
• If you want to write your own code for practice, you can either do that in some other local folder, or better, create a branch in this repo and work on it over there. Then we can pick code blocks from each branch and merge it into the main branch for submission.
• In this repository, I have added the official course directory as a submodule. For more information on how submodules work, check out this link. Because cloning a repo with submodules is a bit different, I will highlight a few keys steps below.

How to clone this repository

git clone https://github.com/tesla1900/programming_course

This will clone the directory but will not contain that information about submodule. To do that, run the following:

cd DbConnector
git submodule init
git submodule update

Another, much simpler way to do this is the following:

git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/tesla1900/programming_course

This should set-up the repo with the submodules automatically.

Pulling changes to the submodule (should be done every week)

git pull will only pull changes made to this repo, not the submodule. In order to pull changes for that as well, run the following:

cd Programming_in_Python_BCGS_Summer_2022 
git pull

To push these changes to the main/branch, do so by doing the usual, add, commit and push.

Git and github

Lastly, if you want to refresh your git and github, you can refer to these two notion articles: git and github.
