 <\/p>\n

Here I’ll explain how you can create a new repository for your projects and use GIT for your version control needs.<\/div>\n
 <\/div>\n
 <\/div>\n
For this, I’ll assume everything is already installed (git and stuff). This also assumes you’re using an Operating System and not the Vermont thing.<\/div>\n
 <\/div>\n
Replace “example.com” with your own domain.<\/div>\n
 <\/div>\n
1. Create a base repository<\/div>\n
 <\/div>\n
$ mkdir example.com && cd example.com\n\n$ git init<\/pre>\n
 <\/div>\n
 <\/div>\n
2. Create a standard .gitignore file<\/div>\n
 <\/div>\n
$ nano .gitignore<\/pre>\n
 <\/div>\n
—————————-<\/div>\n
cgi-bin\/*\n\nupload\/\n\n.idea\/*\n\n# Compiled source #\n\n###################\n\n*.com\n\n*.class\n\n*.dll\n\n*.exe\n\n*.o\n\n*.so\n\n# Packages #\n\n############\n\n# it's better to unpack these files and commit the raw source\n\n# git has its own built in compression methods\n\n*.7z\n\n*.dmg\n\n*.gz\n\n*.iso\n\n*.jar\n\n*.rar\n\n*.tar\n\n*.zip\n\n# Logs and databases #\n\n######################\n\n*.log\n\n*.sql\n\n*.sqlite\n\n# OS generated files #\n\n######################\n\n.DS_Store*\n\nehthumbs.db\n\nIcon?\n\nThumbs.db<\/pre>\n
—————————-<\/div>\n
 <\/div>\n
3. Add and commit the file to your local repository.<\/div>\n
$ git add .gitignore\n\n$ git commit -m "Added standard gitignore file"<\/pre>\n
 <\/div>\n
4. Prepare your local repository for transportation:<\/div>\n
$ cd ..\n\n$ git clone --bare example.com example.com.git\n\n$ touch example.com.git\/git-daemon-export-ok<\/pre>\n
 <\/div>\n
5. Copy it to your server<\/div>\n
$ scp -r example.com.git SERVER:~\/PATH_ON_THE_SERVER\/example.com.git<\/pre>\n
 <\/div>\n
6. Finish preparing your repository on the server:<\/div>\n
 <\/div>\n
$ ssh SERVER\n\n$ cd ~\/PATH_ON_THE_SERVER\/example.com.git\n\n$ git --bare update-server-info\n\n$ cd hooks\n\n$ mv post-update.sample post-update\n\n$ chmod a+x post-update<\/pre>\n
 <\/div>\n
From this point on, you should be able to clone your repository and start working.<\/div>\n
 <\/div>\n
Drop me a line if this does not work for you, and I'll be glad to try and help.<\/div>\n
