How to use this Wiki with Git

  1. install Git

  2. install a git graphical interface, for example TortoiseGit

  3. clone the wiki to your local drive url =https://gitlab.tudelft.nl/jjfvandam/stoll-knitting-machine.wiki.git

  4. use Typora to edit or make new pages

  5. ADD git add * (to add all changes/new files to index)

  6. COMMIT git commit -m "Commit message" (to actually commit these changes use)

  7. PUSH git push origin master (to push it to the repository called 'master' here)

  8. When making changes online, a resync of the local repository is required!

  9. this can be done by git fetch or git sync in the TortoiseGit [todo:lookup git command for this]

  10. How to generate a credential key, so that login is done automatically by tortoisegit:

  11. install Microsoft/Git-Credential-Manager, use manual installation if Got is alerady installed download here: https://github.com/Microsoft/Git-Credential-Manager-for-Windows

  12. To use: Right click → TortoiseGit → Settings → Git → Credential. Select Credential helper: wincred - this repository only. With the first push, the credentials are asked and stored

  13. With problems: check if in windows credential manager the username is stored correctly (should be without the@tudelft.nl)
