Solution What information can you gather/explore from these buttons? Hover over, and click on, the three buttons to the right of each commit. Under the Code tab, find and click on the text that says “XX commits” (where “XX” is some number). GitHub GUIīrowse to your planets repository on GitHub. GitHub, though, this command would download them to our local repository. If someone else had pushed some changes to the repository on Pulling has no effect in this case because the two repositories are already We will run the list command to check what key pairs already exist on your computer. Practice to audit your secure shell keys every so often. You shouldn’t really forget about your SSH keys, since they keep your account secure. Because generally speaking, this setup only needs to happen once and then you can forget about it. The first thing we are going to do is check if this has already been done on the computer you’re on. Advanced SSHĪ supplemental episode in this lesson discusses SSH and key pairs in more depth and detail. What we will do now is the minimum required to set up the SSH keys and add the public key to a GitHub account. You give this padlock, or public key, to GitHub and say “lock the communications to my account with this so that only computers that have my private key can unlock communications and send git commands as my GitHub account.” You use the public key where you want a secure method of communication, such as your GitHub account. You can think of the public key as a padlock, and only you have the key (the private key) to open it. One key is publicly known and called the public key, and the other key called the private key is kept private. This is two keys that work together to validate access. SSH is a cryptographic network protocol that allows secure communication between computers using an otherwise insecure network. This method is called Secure Shell Protocol (SSH). ![]() We are going to set up the method that is commonly used by many different services to authenticate access on the command line. SSH Background and Setupīefore Dracula can connect to a remote repository, he needs to set up a way for his computer to authenticate with GitHub so it knows it’s him trying to connect to his remote repository. Talking about how they might be used for collaboration. We’ll discuss remotes in more detail in the next episode, while A supplemental episode to this lesson discusses advanced setupĪnd concepts of SSH and key pairs, and other material supplemental to git related SSH.Ĭopy that URL from the browser, go into the local planets repository, and run Security protocol widely used by many applications. We use SSH here because, while it requires some additional configuration, it is a The home page of the repository on GitHub includes the URL string we need toĬlick on the ‘SSH’ link to change the protocol from HTTPS to SSH. GitHub repository a remote for the local repository. Remote repository on GitHub appears empty as it doesn’t contain any files yet. Note that our local repository still contains our earlier work on mars.txt, but the Now that we have two repositories, we need a diagram like this: If you remember back to the earlier episode where we added andĬommitted our earlier work on mars.txt, we had a diagram of the local repository This effectively does the following on GitHub’s servers: Information on how to configure your local repository: gitignore” and “Add a license.” See the “GitHub License and README files” exercise below for a fullĮxplanation of why the repository needs to be empty.Īs soon as the repository is created, GitHub displays a page with a URL and some “Initialize this repository with a README” unchecked, and keep “None” as options for both “Add Note: Since this repository will be connected to a local repository, it needs to be empty. Name your repository “planets” and then click “Create Repository”. Log in to GitHub, then click on the icon in the top right corner to To this end we are going to create a remote repository that will be linked to our local repository. Let’s start by sharing the changes we’ve made to our current project with the ![]() GitLab to hold those main copies we’ll explore the pros ![]() On the web rather than on someone’s laptop. Practice, though, it’s easiest to use one copy as a central hub, and to keep it Systems like Git allow us to move work between any two repositories. Only thing missing is to copy changes from one repository to another. We already have most of the machinery we need to do this the Version control really comes into its own when we begin to collaborate with Push to or pull from a remote repository. Explain what remote repositories are and why they are useful.
