Spring 2012, David Matuszek

Purposes of this assignment

• Make sure you know something about at least one popular source code control system.

General idea of the assignment

• Work through Githug, then use git to post a file to a shared repository using the Fork + Pull collaboration model.

Detailed specification

1. Create a free github account.
2. Read the pdf (if you haven't already) and go through Githug.
   • Githug is installed in Moore 207.
   • The installation instructions in Githug assume that you have RubyGem's gem command installed. If not, and you wish to use your own computer, you may have to install git yourself.
3. Once you have reached the final round of Githug, log in to your git account and fork the assignment repo. If you are having difficulty forking or sending pull requests to the course repo, send an email to with a description of the problem you are experiencing, your github user name, and the subject CIT 594 github.
4. Before 6am Tuesday, April 24, send a pull request to the class repo to have your changes added to the class repo. You should add the following to the course repo:
   • Add your name and SEAS username to the existing file called i_completed_githug.txt.
   • Add a screenshot of the Githug message informing you that you have reached the final round. Save the image, using your SEAS username as the file name.
