This repository contains the code and images for the LaTeX document for teaching Git to the Tyler Lab. The original document is version v1.0.0 and subsequent improvements were made starting with v2.0.0. This repository as a whole also stands as an example of many of the techniques used in the document for commiting correctly, making and managing issues, and creating releases.
If you plan on editing the document, you will need to download tools to edit LaTeX. Personally I use Texmaker and MiKTex. A video tutorial for installing these tools is located here. I also use Inkscape to create some of the images in the document and I use a tutorial found here to make them.
Open the Git Tutorial.tex file in TeXmaker to make your edits and to compile the document. The output document for the tutorial is called Git Tutorial.pdf. The other output files are just for creating the pdf file in LaTeX and you can ignore them.
- Nabeel Chowdhury - Initial Creator
- GitHub-Many of the tutorials I used for this document were found on GitHub blogs and documentation
- Atlassian-Atlassian, the owner of bitbucket, also has superb tutorials I used in the creation of this document.
- Git-All of this is based in the usage of Git.
This is the code that is run to generate the pdf for the git tutorial. This script should be run in TeXmaker or any other LaTeX compiler. This script also has a custom funciton, incfig, to take InkScape drawings and make them figures in the document. This is the file you want to edit when updating this document for the lab.
